An interesting confluence of sentences.
Bonds will be on the 2013 ballot alongside other players with a steroid paper trail: Roger Clemens and Sammy Sosa. Another name to consider: Mike Piazza.
Based purely on their numbers, it would be silly to have a Hall of Fame without Bonds and Clemens, the game’s best hitter and pitcher in decades. Their link to performance-enhancing drugs changes everything, however, and their Hall of Fame candidacies might have taken a further hit with today’s results.
