They're cheaters. Bagwell to my knowledge has never been connected to steroids. Imo anyone known to have taken peds should be banned from the hof.

Now for what it's worth, I do think he did it for injury reasons.JMO.

We know sosa, bonds, mac and others used steriods and they don't belong in the hof for that reason.
Guest basketball25 Posted January 3, 2012 Report Posted January 3, 2012 bonds was already great when he played for the pirates!!! he was a 5 tool player, and he is 10 times better than bagwell bonds is a all-time great with steroids or without!!

Bonds never would've hit near as many hr as he did if he wouldn't of used steroids. If you decide to break the rules then you don't go to the hof, it doesn't matter how good you could've been.
lionbaseball Posted January 4, 2012 Author Report Posted January 4, 2012 Honestly I'd like to see the hall hold out one more year so Biggio and Bagwell could go in together, now that would be awesome!
Guest basketball25 Posted January 4, 2012 Report Posted January 4, 2012 bonds is the only player with 400 hrs and 400 stolen baseball and he has 500 each!! 8 gold gloves and 7 mvps, you still have to be great at what you do and he was already great, still have to be discplined at the plate !!! i have been around alot of college players that cheayed and they still couldnt hit a curveball and etc gotta already be great at what u do, pitchers would go up 8 mph but still couldnt hit a back side of a barn, still have to throw strikes, get ahead in the count andl have movement on your fastball and have to be mentally tough!!!

Id you have skill the will definitely make you better. Bottom line is bonds cheated he doesn't belong in the hof no matter how good he was.
Guest basketball25 Posted January 4, 2012 Report Posted January 4, 2012 your just being a hater!!! the guy should be in the hof easy!!! let me guess u think clemens shouldnt be either??? dont hate the player hate the game, sosa and big mac brought baseball back!!! wasnt a steroid policy till like 2002 its baseballs fault for letting this go on for so long!!! bagwell started getting more injured when he couldnt juice up anymore!!

The players knew what they were doing was wrong not to mention steriods are ILLEGAL. Let me say this again YOU decide to break the rules the punishment comes down on YOU, because only YOU are responsible for YOUR actions. I'd appreciate it if you didn't speculate on players who may or may not have used steroids. Bagwell has no known connection to steriods.

Hoping to make another trip up to Cooperstown next August.
