He backs it up on the field year after year. Barring any kind of tragedy, Rodriguez is a sure Hall-of-Famer. I can understand this type of sentiment, though. I despise the S.F. Giants more than any other team and as much as I hate to admit it, Barry Bonds is the best hitter ever in the game. Ba-Bo didn't start using the juice until the 2001 season--the year he hit 73 homers--but the numbers before then are as good as anybody in Cooperstown. [Jaydawg from Tarzana/CA] Replies:
