Reall Teall just helps you become faster and stronger with your swing, not like that would help at all. Barry Bonds was a very talented player but steroids gave him a competitive edge over the players who abided by the rules
He was walked 2,500 times, still hit 762 Hrs, and still had almost 3,000 hits despite those walks. Had he stayed off steroids, I think he would still have hit at least 600 Hrs maybe, had over 3,000 hits and till had over 1,500 walks. He was also good at mot striking out too.
I would like to respectfully disagree sir. Think about it, even though it hasn’t been proven that he used steroids or ped’s, he played in the steroid era and got insanely jacked up and turned into a ungodly combination of strength and discipline. The facts are there. Hank Aaron is the real home run king
@@dianechambers5985 even if you take out his suspected steroid years out of the equation he still has hof numbers and probably still would have got the 500 500 club or at the very least 400 400
Before he likely did steroids. Or when he maybe first started. Barry was not a small guy, but he also grew abnormally large in the head and body to where it was obvious it was not natural. Your head and body don’t gain muscle mass as you age and you lose a little physically as you age, but he got bigger and stronger with age.
@@ssffssksnsn6621 I mean I’m the biggest bonds fan out there and he def did that shit. The only question is whether he knew he was doing it or just doing what his trainer told him. He admitted he did whatever his trainer gave him no questions
Bonds is the GOAT. Period. Unparalleled production. He won 7 MVPS but was definitely robbed of 2 more (he should have 9 MVPS). He was insanely clutch, and a five tool player. He was the best player in baseball for the entire 90s (led in all the major rate stats and WAR). He was also the best 2 way player of the decade alongside Griffey. His 2000s put it beyond doubt - you can't even replicate his 2004 season on Rookie mode on MLB's The Show. So saying he put up video games doesn't even do that season justice - he put up numbers an alien would put up if he were pretending to be human. Bonds is the greatest hitter of all-time and the greatest overall player of all time.
YO THE WAY YOU PUT IT JUST BLOWS MY MIND HOW GOOD HE REALLY WAS...!!! JUST AMAZING!!....THOSE NUMBERS ARE BETTER THAN ANY PLAYER IN ANY SPORT!!!! SHAME ON MLB!!!
People just completely forget how good he actually was. The dude hit 45 home runs with a 370 batting average and walked 198 x. He had 45 homeruns in 373 at-bats with a 360 batting average and 232 walks. The year he hit 73 home runs he had a homerun every 6.5 at-bats. I don't give a shit about steroids I don't care what anyone says, guys who hit 40 to 50 home runs these days rarely hit better than 250 and strike out almost 200 times a year. The fact that he would get maybe one good pitch every game to hit and almost always hit a homerun on it, is insane. I miss the days of power hitters being good hitters as well. My favorite player growing up was Gary Sheffield and he consistently hit over 300 with 30 to 40 plus homeruns 100-plus RBIs he walked 80 to 100 times and usually struck out like 50 or 60 times a year. The power hitters back then we're also hitting 320 or 330 or 350. I miss those days and I would give anything to see hitters like that again even if it means pumping them full of juice
@@ohhebotchesit7432 Steroids just make you stronger and recover faster. They don't make you barrel the ball up like Bonds did. Plus everyone was roided out in those days, yet none of them did what Bonds did
You took the right tack on this. Bonds was way better than everyone else, and it was acknowledged by the pitchers and the award-voters. I agree that his 120 IBB 2004 is the best singular support for his greatest of all time claim. And it was much harder to stand out in the 2000s than it was in, say, 1930. A minor note: in 2001, Bonds hit 73 home runs, not 72.
I'm a Milwaukee guy. Every time he came to town. The tailgating started early, because we had to see Barry take BP. I saw him take BP in LA and SD as well. Epic. Unfortunately, whenever I was in SF, the Giants were always on the road.
If “steroids” are your reason to discredit Barry Bonds let me just remind you he started doing steroids in 2000 by then he was already a 3 time mvp, 8 time gold glover, 7 time silver slugger, league leader in HR and RBIs in 1993 and he was already the ONLY member of the 400-400 club. As good as 73 home run Barry was you can make a legitimate argument that he was actually BETTER before the steroids…
I really think he's going to be snubbed just because the "media" wants to win. but really he was the best. Like Greg Maddux recently said - the players who woulda made it in regardless of peds should make it. It's pretty said to see the best offensive player to ever play is in his 10th year right now.
All time leader in homeruns, walks, and runs created and probably more stats. Only 3 seasons with more strikeouts than walks... as a power hitter!! Career ops over 1.000 and multiple seasons over 1.200. Also had multiple .800 slugging seasons!! That's almost allstar ops! True 🐐
When Bonds can go up to bat without a helmet, without leg and arm armor, and still stand in there with a ball directed at your head and hit the way Ruth did, we have something to discuss. Bond played 500 more games than Ruth and had a lower slugging percentage. He also played in an era where not only was he juiced, but so was baseball. ( MLB likes more HR ) In addition, while the pitching today may be faster, the mound was also lowered, giving the batter a more significant advantage. In today's baseball, Ruth would be jacking 80 HRs a season. No comparison. Wonder how Bonds would do against a spitball? It was legal during Ruth's era! Ruth is the G.O.A.T.
Great video dude. I think his 2004 year was the best offensive year ever by any player. I went to his first game of the 05 season. He had no spring training and he was on the DL for 5 months, but he still roped a double off the top of the left field wall in his first AB. It was unreal.
lol i was just eye balling his 2004 season stats, I can’t even replicate that on PS5 The Show on rookie level…Bonds simply the best. Juice or no juice the guys plate discipline combined with his hand-eye coordination is unmatched.
I can’t stand how people think that doing steroids is automatically going to make you a great baseball player. Barry is the GOAT. Hate it or not The steroid era was the best era
Bonds was amazing and deserves to be in the HOF if you look at his non steroid years alone. PLUS, commissioner Bud Selig is responsible for the steroid era as MLB turned a blind eye and Selig is in the hall. That being said, Bonds is the second best baseball player ever. Babe Ruth was truly a freak of nature. He dominated like no other and built the sport because of that. You cant compare absolute numbers due to a different ball and parks. But there were years that he got more home runs than other teams. That being said, Bonds at his peak was as close to Ruth as anyone has gotten. And one thing that Ruth didn't have to deal with was a hostile media.
He is the GOAT. There is absolutely no reason why Barry bonds is not in the hall of fame he has the most MVPs ever the closest person to him has four less MVPs than him
I miss this era. I would watch as many games as I could back then because it seemed like something special was happening every dam day. Barry is the best hitter of all time and the hall of fame is a joke without him and Pete Rose in it
No it was harder when Ruth played.Very hot,all day, no helmets,no pads,rocks all over the ground.Everyone was major league caliber.In Barrys time the league was watered down with minor league talent.No peds either.Stupid Idiot.
The Time Traveler everyone knows that sports are more competitive nowadays. Back then men were not nearly as fast or strong as they are now. People evolve and it was also just white guys
@@colejordan9393 oh really, so ur telling me guys like Cobb, Ruth, Williams, Walter Johnson, Wagner wouldn't be doing as good in today's game THATS DELUSIONAL Their in the HOF for a reason I mean, seriously, pitchers were around the same speed, ballparks weren't any bigger
Traynor Janosko Training, Health, and diets are much better nowadays. People evolve and are statistically better. I'm not saying that guys like Ted Williams and Babe Ruth would be scrubs or even average players. They would still be stars and superstars. I'm just saying that people now have better training so there are a lot more great players
Those 7 MVP's + 8 Gold Gloves are pretty tall cotton. Chamberlain & Gretzky territory when you're talking about the only member of a milestone only you can accomplish.
He did steroids, dont know if he did them intentionally or not but regardless his absolute skill and discipline on the plate is still absolutely astounding regardless. No other steroid mf produced even close to his numbers
I'm here on the night of the HR Derby. The game is missing out on celebrating Barry. Imagine if he was "liked" by the media. Completely different narrative. He was the GOAT before he decided to reinvent himself.... Just cause smh. Amazing
The fact that Barry bonds is not in the Hall of Fame is the single biggest crime in American sports history. Statistically speaking there was absolutely nobody that was close. He never failed MLB drug tests and played in an era where many now Hall of Fame players also played in before testing was even implemented. How can you crucify one player and not an entire era? Or better yet the commissioner who reigned over that era?
Tbh what people don’t realize is we were ripped of his potential when he did take steroids he hit mor hrs without them and walked a lot less without them he might of hit 800 hrs if he didnt take them
I've always thought the head expansion argument was a weird hill to die on. Your bone structure continues to change as you get older. Lifting weights for 22 years straight will keep your testosterone levels above the average person, which further contributes to bone structure changes and obviously muscle gain.
I’m 45 years old and I love baseball and I have never seen a baseball player Better then Bonds ! No why because there is no one better! They said he did PED but he was a hall of fame player before he ever did PED if he did
Yep, he was the best. But I think Trout has the potential to be the GOAT but what most people don’t understand is that Bonds could recognize the pitch after seeing it leave the pitchers hand. He had vision better than 20/10. baseballnews.com/the-baseball-vision-of-barry-bonds/
Even before the roids he was already the goat!!! 500 HR 500 SB 7 GGand the MVP's omg!! People forget he used roids on the ass end of his career!! meaing he out up those numbers against roided ball players!! Hate if u want!! He is the goat period!!!
Imagine going to bat 4 times are 1 pitch to hit and knocking that ball to no man's land. Bonds cove. He made people buy canoes boats scuba gear nets snorkels DaMn not a fisherman a baseball player
Actually they already had cheaters in the Hall of Fame including steroid users like Mike Piazza Jeff Bagwell and Iwan Rodriguez.. but you got wife beaters and racist, are in the Hall of fame. And last but not least you got Amphetamines are in the hall of fame.. there are only three players have taken them Mickey, Mantle Willie Mays, and Hank Aaron,. Baseball was made a cheating through centuries. The Hall of Fame is not a saint
If babe ruth had steroids, He would be BY FAR the best of all time. And that is just giving him steroids. Imagine if he had the kind of training equipment and nutritional stuff as bonds did. He would have hit a hr every other at bat no question. Saying barry bonds is the goat is stupid, because he cheated. Imagine mays with steroid, mantle with steroids, gehrig with steroids, dimaggio with steroids, cobb, shoeless, reggie jackson, thurman munson, roger maris, cap anson, etc. They would all be WAY better than bonds if they had steroids, and the list goes on. Steroids should disqualify Barry Bonds from every record book.
@@thecardcollector6094 most chesters are in the hall of fame so then ..mlb should give back all the money they made in thanks to steroids, which science does it prove that steroids makes u hit a higher percentage, how about how many players are u can pick over him ?
@@kingcali6507 please speak with english, because I can barely understand what you are saying because your grammar is so bad. First of all, most cheaters ARE NOT IN THE HALL OF FAME! Pete Rose, Joe Jackson, Dykstra,mcgwire, sosa etc. Steroids make you hit harder.
Babe Ruth actually did take steroids (he injected himself with the extract of sheep's testicles), but he made himself ill and was out of the lineup for weeks. The papers reported it as one of Ruth's 'stomach aches'. There's goes your dumb theory. Also, Bonds didn't cheat. He took PEDs to be on a level playing field with everyone else. He was the best player in the game going back to 1990. He was the still the most feared hitter in the game in 2007, his last season, at age 42 as a part-time player, when he lead the league in BB, IBB, OBP, and also finished 5th in Slugging %, but didn't qualify because of all the walks. This was a few years after they implemented PED testing. I won't even get into the quality of competition Bonds had to deal with compared to Ruth. You sound like you're trying to make a moral argument, which is pretty stupid.
The baseball hall of fame is the joke of all sports.They think it's supposed to be induction into the Clergy or the Priesthood. They're all wrong. It's supposed to be filled with baseballs best players not baseballs best people of character. How do you have a Hall of Fame for Baseball that doesn't include Barry Bonds Roger Clemens Pete Rose The Hall of Fame for Baseball should have an asterisk on the building with a disclaimer: "Before you enter please note that arguably the 3 best Baseball players of all time are not inside" The Baseball Writers who are responsible for this travesty are self righteous,hypocritical and self indulgent. And probably are reincarnations of the men that were responsible for the Salem Witch Trials.
He played in the toughest era,jealous,racist hater!Gehrig,Speaker,Foxx,Cobb,Joe Jackson,Al Simmons,Heilmann,Sisler,Wilson?!Weak?!All hall of Famers,all record holders!Do priper research before you sound off,freak!
Michelle Allen I don’t think he’s saying they were all trash. So the players you mentioned coulda just been solid mlb players( by today’s standards) playing against AA caliber opponents. It was a lot harder to find talent back then, and some teams signed players off the streets. Also it was a white guys game, witch again lowers the pool of talent.
@@tdaddy1092 they only got guys off the streets because they had smaller rosters back then You don't get the 1927 Yankees of the streets Baseball historians have proven that the average speed of a fastball was 91mph, which is just 2 mph slower than the average nowadays The 1927 Yankees could blowout today's Yankees so could any other team back then vs their same teams now
@JudgeBullShit no its just that back then blacks just were not good at baseball. It's gotten better but back then, no way. Back then the only sport people payed attention to was baseball. So most pro athletes at the time were baseball players. What I'm saying is that nobody at the time that played in the mlb was " bad" at baseball, everyone was somewhat good. I'm not really saying the talent pool was worse. Im saying it was more even which means it harder. Also there was less people on the rosters, managers only picked the best of the best which means you aren't facing guys who suck. Nowadays there are guys who bat below .100 all the time which means that the talent pool is uneven. It's less competitive because not everybody on the same skill level
He had the greatest stats of all time but I will never budge on the fact that the steroids greatly boosted his numbers and he should not be truly counted as the greatest of all time
The steroids boosted his HR numbers, and I know that’s a big deal because it’s arguably the most important record for hitters, but it doesn’t change his OBP. He also got too big from the steroids to steal bases anymore, yet he’s still 34th all time in bases stolen. Name another guy from that era who was juicing and could have that many steals

He cheated the game so yes it is debatable but what isn’t debatable is your stupidity
Why dont u say that to my face? We will settle this after school by the oak tree.
By ur school 😂😂😂 idk where you live
These guys in denial are pathetic.
Can’t be the greatest if you don’t have a ring
They should make a hof for the players that are better than the hofers
Greatest off all time
Hall of famer 🥶
The fact that Barry bonds is not in the Hall of Fame is the single biggest crime in American sports history. Statistically speaking there was absolutely nobody that was close. He never failed MLB drug tests and played in an era where many now Hall of Fame players also played in before testing was even implemented. How can you crucify one player and not an entire era? Or better yet the commissioner who reigned over that era?
Bonds is the best ever..
@@dontrellmayfieldjr2868🤡
Greatest player ever!
Good video Gomey
Tbh what people don’t realize is we were ripped of his potential when he did take steroids he hit mor hrs without them and walked a lot less without them he might of hit 800 hrs if he didnt take them
He had hof numbers well before his suspected use as well
I've always thought the head expansion argument was a weird hill to die on. Your bone structure continues to change as you get older. Lifting weights for 22 years straight will keep your testosterone levels above the average person, which further contributes to bone structure changes and obviously muscle gain.
I’m 45 years old and I love baseball and I have never seen a baseball player Better then Bonds ! No why because there is no one better! They said he did PED but he was a hall of fame player before he ever did PED if he did
The Goat !
Personally I think Willie Mays is the best ever
Mays is number 2 or 3. Bonds put up video game numbers.
I put Mays at 2, Bonds 1
1. Bonds 2. Mays
Yeah sure whatever you say Moe
GOAT
For my generation, of those without cheating rumors, I’ll take Rickey Henderson over anyone else
By far. Real far the goat
A lot of the numbers here are wrong
GOAT - period.
🤡
Best hitter all time. No one wants to pitch that man. This is coming from a yankee fan
Been to probably 5 games in my life, pops an Oakland fan. Watched that man hit 3 homers into the cove in one game, unbelievable!!!!
Do a pete rose one, gotta get him in the hall
he never cheated only gambled
Bonds is the best player i ever watched play........
Goat
PEDs don’t give you better hand-eye coordination. It’s a shame that he has been excluded from the HOF
Yeah they do, genius.
Yep, he was the best. But I think Trout has the potential to be the GOAT but what most people don’t understand is that Bonds could recognize the pitch after seeing it leave the pitchers hand. He had vision better than 20/10.
baseballnews.com/the-baseball-vision-of-barry-bonds/
Ho many mvp,s does trout have
3 but he’s not even 30
Trout will never catch Bonds. Not as durable as Bonds was.
Bonds is the GOAT
7 mvps is just filthy 😤
He never hit 400. in a season I still say Ted Williams is the greatest hitter who ever lived
Babe Ruth ofc.
Even before the roids he was already the goat!!! 500 HR 500 SB 7 GGand the MVP's omg!! People forget he used roids on the ass end of his career!! meaing he out up those numbers against roided ball players!! Hate if u want!! He is the goat period!!!
Greatest ever no question
Best ever
How does one even elect God into the Baseball Hall of Fame?
Bonds is the GOAT, but my favorite is Eddie Murray. ;)
No doubt
Imagine going to bat 4 times are 1 pitch to hit and knocking that ball to no man's land. Bonds cove. He made people buy canoes boats scuba gear nets snorkels DaMn not a fisherman a baseball player
He has 9 gold gloves
Bonds would have been a hall of famer without roids but he doesn't deserve to get in the hof because of cheating
Agree
Actually they already had cheaters in the Hall of Fame including steroid users like Mike Piazza Jeff Bagwell and Iwan Rodriguez.. but you got wife beaters and racist, are in the Hall of fame.
And last but not least you got Amphetamines are in the hall of fame.. there are only three players have taken them Mickey, Mantle Willie Mays, and Hank Aaron,.
Baseball was made a cheating through centuries.
The Hall of Fame is not a saint
Yes
73 homers not 72
Probably the GOAT. Ruth is there too.
Should have had 9 mvps imo
FACTS.
It should b 6 facts not 5 ! The greatest juicer in MLB history !!
Only guy who has a shot at beating Bonds on Homeruns is Pujols and he'd have to extend his contract to do it..
@E Yeah, Pujols is running on fumes.
Bonds is the GOAT 🐐 💯
Bonds was the best to ever do it wish he wouldn’t have tainted his career with PEDs
If babe ruth had steroids, He would be BY FAR the best of all time. And that is just giving him steroids. Imagine if he had the kind of training equipment and nutritional stuff as bonds did. He would have hit a hr every other at bat no question. Saying barry bonds is the goat is stupid, because he cheated. Imagine mays with steroid, mantle with steroids, gehrig with steroids, dimaggio with steroids, cobb, shoeless, reggie jackson, thurman munson, roger maris, cap anson, etc. They would all be WAY better than bonds if they had steroids, and the list goes on. Steroids should disqualify Barry Bonds from every record book.
Bro bonds was still better that natural talent is God given .. sorry bro ruth aint in the same league as him
@@kingcali6507 He had NO NATURAL TALENT. It was all steroids. He should be erased from the record books.
@@thecardcollector6094 most chesters are in the hall of fame so then ..mlb should give back all the money they made in thanks to steroids, which science does it prove that steroids makes u hit a higher percentage, how about how many players are u can pick over him ?
@@kingcali6507 please speak with english, because I can barely understand what you are saying because your grammar is so bad. First of all, most cheaters ARE NOT IN THE HALL OF FAME! Pete Rose, Joe Jackson, Dykstra,mcgwire, sosa etc. Steroids make you hit harder.
Babe Ruth actually did take steroids (he injected himself with the extract of sheep's testicles), but he made himself ill and was out of the lineup for weeks. The papers reported it as one of Ruth's 'stomach aches'. There's goes your dumb theory. Also, Bonds didn't cheat. He took PEDs to be on a level playing field with everyone else. He was the best player in the game going back to 1990. He was the still the most feared hitter in the game in 2007, his last season, at age 42 as a part-time player, when he lead the league in BB, IBB, OBP, and also finished 5th in Slugging %, but didn't qualify because of all the walks. This was a few years after they implemented PED testing. I won't even get into the quality of competition Bonds had to deal with compared to Ruth. You sound like you're trying to make a moral argument, which is pretty stupid.
The baseball hall of fame is the joke of all sports.They think it's supposed to be induction into the Clergy or the Priesthood.
They're all wrong.
It's supposed to be filled with baseballs best players not baseballs best people of character.
How do you have a Hall of Fame for Baseball that doesn't include
Barry Bonds
Roger Clemens
Pete Rose
The Hall of Fame for Baseball should have an asterisk on the building with a disclaimer:
"Before you enter please note that
arguably the 3 best Baseball players of all time are not inside"
The Baseball Writers who are responsible for this travesty are self righteous,hypocritical and self indulgent.
And probably are reincarnations of the men that were responsible for the Salem Witch Trials.
Babe Ruth is the most overrated player ever. He played in such a weak era
He played in the toughest era,jealous,racist hater!Gehrig,Speaker,Foxx,Cobb,Joe Jackson,Al Simmons,Heilmann,Sisler,Wilson?!Weak?!All hall of Famers,all record holders!Do priper research before you sound off,freak!
Michelle Allen I don’t think he’s saying they were all trash. So the players you mentioned coulda just been solid mlb players( by today’s standards) playing against AA caliber opponents. It was a lot harder to find talent back then, and some teams signed players off the streets. Also it was a white guys game, witch again lowers the pool of talent.
@@tdaddy1092 It WaS AlL wHItE GUys, buddy all those guys @MichellAllen just named would probably be better than any black mlb player in 2019
@@tdaddy1092 they only got guys off the streets because they had smaller rosters back then
You don't get the 1927 Yankees of the streets
Baseball historians have proven that the average speed of a fastball was 91mph, which is just 2 mph slower than the average nowadays
The 1927 Yankees could blowout today's Yankees so could any other team back then vs their same teams now
@JudgeBullShit no its just that back then blacks just were not good at baseball. It's gotten better but back then, no way. Back then the only sport people payed attention to was baseball. So most pro athletes at the time were baseball players. What I'm saying is that nobody at the time that played in the mlb was " bad" at baseball, everyone was somewhat good. I'm not really saying the talent pool was worse. Im saying it was more even which means it harder. Also there was less people on the rosters, managers only picked the best of the best which means you aren't facing guys who suck. Nowadays there are guys who bat below .100 all the time which means that the talent pool is uneven. It's less competitive because not everybody on the same skill level
500sb and 500 hr. Before the roids. Best ever hands down. O and 8 gold gloves
The greatest doper.
He had the greatest stats of all time but I will never budge on the fact that the steroids greatly boosted his numbers and he should not be truly counted as the greatest of all time
Whatever Studios he was never caught, although he looked like it, it was never proven
Lilrudeboy 02 but somehow its had enough credibility to keep him out of the HOF for now
Barry bonds was caught and he admitted it
The steroids boosted his HR numbers, and I know that’s a big deal because it’s arguably the most important record for hitters, but it doesn’t change his OBP. He also got too big from the steroids to steal bases anymore, yet he’s still 34th all time in bases stolen. Name another guy from that era who was juicing and could have that many steals
I believe Bonds is also the only player to win multiple MVPs & Gold Gloves with two different teams. Incredible.
