One big thing that hasn’t been mentioned about Bonds was his use of armor, guards and pads that he implemented in the back half of his career. There was virtually no way to pitch to the guy. He crowded the plate and it didn’t matter if you tried to hit him, because he could lean into it and get his free base with no fear of getting hurt. Try anything outside, he’s got that covered now. Dude was just a ridiculous person with a massive insecurity complex. I’m in the camp of **** him. He was a big mouth prima dona, and I’m glad he never got a WS ring and has yet to be enshrined into the HOF.
