So was Barry. The reason is because of how big he has been for the past few years, basically up until last year. Then this year his uniform was a little bigger than normal, and he missed some time due to injury. It’s just an opinion though.

A little spike in HR’s from 1998 to 2005. Coincidence? Maybe, but I think not.

Again, merely my opinion.

Also, would anyone think that Bonds' stats were odd just by looking at them, except for his 73 HR year??
