I would say Pujols, Mantle or Hank. Pujols because he is retiring. Mantle is a 5 tool fan favorite. Hank is a new legend and the real HR king.
Only homerun king I know is named Barry foh w the bs
You know without the cream and the clear Barry doesn't sniff Hank Aaron.
Hank Aaron was facing garbage pitchers. You can't compare the 2. Bonds was twice the athlete Aaron was or could have dreamed of being..
That is a foolish statement.
Not really. You bring the pitchers that Aaron faced to todays game or even when Bonds was playing, and maybe half are star pitchers. The times have changed. Aaron wasnt facing the talent everyday like Bonds. And also wasnt being intentionally walked twice a game. There's really no comparison. All around Bonds was a better athlete and faced much stiffer competition day in and day out.

The guy cheated. So Bill Russel sucked because Shaq or Kareem were better athletes 15-40 years later? You can't compare across generations without looking at the dominance of a person in their generation.

What? So you can say Aaron sucked due the the age in which he played and you base it on comparing Bonds era players to Aaron's.....but to use your process to disprove your methodology or show the absurdity of it is not legit, lol.
Why such a fan boy for barry? The guy cheated and as arrogant any one ever.

I think we should make a note of every name mentioned in this thread and cross it off the list of possibilities, because the community really sucks at guessing these things.
I predict that the reveal will spark a wave of whiny complaint posts, because whoever it is won't match the awesomeness of the unrealistic dream scenarios that people have swirling around in their heads.
You been around here before? Think you are as dead on as can be

Hoping for Griffey, Mays, or Mantle. I need a CFer to replace Dominguez/Turner.
No ty to Pujols. Too many 1B as it is.

Bonds was an amazing player before the roids. Could he have been better than Aaron? I don’t know. He gave up that possibility when he decided to cheat and tarnished the rest of his career.

I'm hoping for a 5-tool OF card as well.

If it were to be Pujols, that would be very underwhelming. I wouldn’t be in a rush to buy cards to finish that collection.

Lol I'm not a fanboy and I never said Aaron sucked. All I'm saying is that Bonds faced much better pitching and is a better athlete. You can't use basketball bc the ball and rim jav3e stayed the same. Aaron wasnt facing 95+ every game and nasty moving breaking balls. Not all the time.

Are you kidding. They lowered the mound and shrunk the strike zone in 69, because pitching was so dominant. Aaron played and proved himself in an era where it was more difficult to hit. When I look at Bonds I throw out everything he did when he was 29 and older because it's all suspect, and what I'm left with is a pretty good player that has some pop, but by no means a hof lock.
-
I hope so. There’s hardly any 1st basemen available in the game.

Q which is it the rules or the dope? Yall don't know what excuse you need facts are Barry is the best ball player of any sport ever nobody dominated like him and nobody ever will hate all you want just cuz you're emotional doesn't change the facts
Who's emotional? I'm just stating the truth. Fact is Barry Bonds was a sure fire HOF'er before he did the cream and the clear. He was a tremendous baseball talent. However, he would have never got up to Hank without it though. If you don't think that had anything to do with you are delusional.
If you think Aaron did not do anything you are Delusional, Those players at that time were on stuff to called Greenies, I know I know two different types of substance but substance is substance and cheating is cheating, I do not care about it because baseball did nothing to enforce it because it brought in money after the 94 strike, with out roids baseball would not be where it is today. We would not have had Sosa McGwire, Bonds. Those were great times great years of baseball, That is what brought a lot of fans back after the strike, Baseball made a lot of money during the Roids years. To keep Bonds and Clemens out of the HOF when it already has cheaters in the HOF is wrong,The list if very long of cheaters, bad Characters which is part of the vote as well as drug attics, it is all in which time you played that makes it ok or not.

You need to stop sugercoating it. Bonds was a pretty good player, but a sure fire hof'er he was not. Maybe he would have made it, maybe he wouldn't have. Without the juice he never would have become the feared hitter he became.
I'm completely against drug enhancement, and don't think mlb went far enough. Rodriguez and other's like him wouldn't have gotten a year suspension, but lifetime. If it can be proven you knowingly took ped's, you're out.
I despise Bonds more than any of them. By cheating he took what is probably baseball's highest recognition (hr title), and wish mlb would remove his stats and give the title back to Aaron.Pretty good player? Bonds had 400 HR and 3 MVPs before the juice. He was guaranteed to be a hall of famer

You obviously know nothing about 60's pitchers, and that until 69 Aaron had to deal with a heigthened mound and an expanded strike zone. Take the juice away from Bonds, and you have Aaron #1 in hrs, 3rd in hits, and first in rbi's. You're right about there being no comparison, but it's Bonds who paled.
Aaron was on a substance as well learn the history it's called Greenies

Spoil alert Aaron cheated to he was on greenies

Hoping for Mantle as the big collection as CF is kind of weak. Would be OK with Hank and Pujols though.

The biggest problem with all this is the man that allowed all this to happen for personal gain(Selig) is in the HOF and the players that made MLB millions of dollars are not. Steroid weren't even tested for until 2004. Players that used steroids before that aren't any different than the pitchers that were using Spider Tack. Bonds, Clemens, Sosa, Mcgwire, Canseco, and Palmeiro were a grade A A-holes. Jeff Bagwell admitted to using steroids, he is in the HOF. Canseco claims to have injected Pudge himself, pudge is in the HOF. Big Papi is very likely to get voted in. The real joke is the voters picking and choosing which steroid users deserve to be in or not
-
Hank Aaron is the best guess for me.
Shocked we haven't really seen anything for Joe yet though -
are we sure it's only going to be a flashbacks/legends collection? Title makes it seems that is all you will need and you won't need PS, All Stars, Rookie and all the other sets for the new collection? Unlike the Mo one where it said prepare your collections. This one specifically mentions only flashbacks and legends.
