How do bodybuilders get so big without steroids?

anyways, using steroids is illegal in the US... and MLB is in the US... so I would say it's illegal to use in MLB. However, MLB didn't have it on the books so they didn't test for it. Just like meth/amphetamines weren't tested for...

well he's admitted to using the Cream and the Clear so its established that he's used steroids. only thing to find out is if he perjured himself during grand jury testimony. I think he was jealous of the attention Sosa and McGwire were getting so he juiced up to hit the ball out of the park in record numbers which he did.

to say he's the greatest player of all time is a misstatement in itself. Aaron wasn't even tagged the greatest player ever. Bonds isnt even a 5 tool player. He hits HR's. Thats it. Cant run for shit, has NEVER had a decent arm, has always hit for a decent average and can barely field his position if he bothers to run to the ball. Not to mention he treats MLB fans like shit. Way to dis the very people that pay your salary. Way to be thankful

How many stolen bases does he have? What about Gold Gloves?

I dont have his card in front of me but he's never been in the league of other base stealers of his era. Couldn't tell you how many Gold Gloves he has but probably a few. Like I said the balls hit right to him he catches. if he has to run or possibly get grass on his uniform he lets Roberts go after them

You're only thinking of the bad kneed/old Barry.
