Will 2020 be the year Barry Bonds is enshrined in the Hall of Fame?

Barry Bonds remains in the record books as the all-time leader in home runs with 762 over a 22-year career. He is also the record holder for walks and intentional walks in a career. His career slash line: .298/.444/.607 for an absurd 182 OPS+.

Bonds was awarded seven MVP awards, eight Gold Gloves, he won the batting title twice, and was a 14-time All-Star.

And yet, after six years of being on the ballot for induction into the Baseball Hall of Fame, he remains on the outside looking in.

His connections to PEDs during the steroid-rampant era of baseball remain unproven, but he remains seemingly found guilty in the court of public opinion.
