Bonds also got blackballed at the end of his career. He led the league with .480 OBP and had 28 bombs his final season. Then the MLB colluded to not sign him. Given a normal end to his career, he would have easily eclipsed 800 HRs. All while he had a career OBP of .444.

In the constraints of the rules, Barry Bonds is the greatest offensive threat of all time. By every measure you can cook up fairly.
800? What a freaking joke. He barely hit 30 most years when he wasn't juicing. He would have had to play into his 50's to reach Hank. Hank hit 40 plus many years and he did it clean.

Bonds was a great hitter and I will say the best hitter in the game of his era but to say Homerun King? You have to be clean to make that claim and that man was not. He cheated the game and those that came before him. I get it that everyone was doing it but no way should his hitting records be compared to those that played clean.
