[The Condor]

It really is bizarre to consider that Clemens, Bonds and Sosa will be shut out but Biggio, Bagwell, Piazza and Morris will go in over them. They were all excellent players, but watching baseball from the early nineties through mid-2000's you had a sense that Bonds and Clemens were the best position player and pitcher since at least 1970. But the others (insofar as we know) did it the "right" way.

I think out of all the juicers or supposed juicers, Bonds would have the best shot although after getting "punished" for a few years by the voters.

His stats and career before the supposed juicing years (2000-2002?) was already Hall of Fame potential and most believe his juicing was due to jealousy from all the attention McGwire and Sosa got from their HR race.
