'Roids Or Droid?
Barry Bonds is ridunkulous. Last night Rabbi W showed me the craziest stats.
You may have heard about this whole steroids, Barry Bonds thing. "Oh Bonds isn't good, it's just the steroids." Well, let me show you, it's not.
Another thing, he also doesn't have very many RBIs. Let's deal with that first. In his last 3 years (2002 - 2004) he had 110, 90 (NINETY!!!), and 101 RBIs, respectively. But like, dude, why hasn't he more RBIs? Since 2000, he's had 40+ homers every year. You'd think that he would have more. Well, let's look.
In 2002, this was his stat line with men on second and third:
By Situation AB R H RBI BB OBP SLG OPS
2nd & 3rd 1 9 0 1 9 .900 .000 .900
Officially, he had ONE at-bat. ONE AT-BAT! Nine walks!
2003:
AB R H RBI BB OBP SLG OPS
1 11 0 1 18 .900 .000 .900
2004:
AB R H RBI BB OBP SLG OPS
2 12 0 2 14 .875 .000 .875
Now, to show the amazingness of Barry, let's take a look at another stat. How he bats when he's down in the count, at 0-1, and 0-2. But first, let's compare him other amazing hitters.
Who's the best hitter in the NL? Pujols? Yeah, thought so. Lets look at him down in the count:
2002 - 2004
By Count AB R H 2B 3B HR RBI BB HBP SO SB CS AVG OBP SLG OPS
After 0-1 826 0 253 66 3 49 147 50 9 114 3 3 .306 .349 .571 .920
Ok, ok, that's good. Now let's look at 0-2.
By Count AB R H 2B 3B HR RBI BB HBP SO SB CS AVG OBP SLG OPS
After 0-2 282 0 66 15 3 11 40 10 6 63 0 1 .234 .273 .426 .699
I must say, that is quite bad.
Now let's look at Barry:
2002 - 2004
By Count AB R H 2B 3B HR RBI BB HBP SO SB CS AVG OBP SLG OPS
After 0-1 329 0 105 15 1 36 68 57 8 60 1 0 .319 .427 .699 1.126
After 0-2 104 0 32 4 0 11 21 11 0 34 0 0 .308 .371 .663 1.034
He doesn't care what the count is. Most batters just like, are dead at that point. Barry is just on another level. His OPS would lead the league!
He doesn't even care who the pitcher is:
Pitcher AB H 2B HR RBI BB SO AVG OBP SLG OPS
Randy Johnson 49 15 3 3 12 11 6 .306 .452 .551 1.003
Tom Glavine 79 26 6 2 13 13 10 .329 .426 .570 .995
Pedro Martinez 33 11 3 1 3 10 8 .333 .488 .576 1.064
Let's face it people: Barry Bonds is ridunkulous, and it has NOTHING to do with the 'roids.

i did before you knew him. and besides, im surprised you didnt.
dani, i dare you, giev me proofs that he isnt that great.
i dare you.
Tonny, it's just way to many numbers. how do you process them?
rik...idk, as peggy.
roth...my point is that steroids dont make him great. you think the steroids gave him a .300 ave after 0-2, or a 1.000 ops? i think not...
and besides, they dont have those splits before 2002...
