Yeah, I guess he put on a little weight. Ruth did it with beer and whiskey.

So no one here gained any weight in the same time frame?
I'm in no position to say "Yes, he juiced." or "No, he didn't." I'll admit the changes in his physical appearance are damning, but you can't automatically make the leap of faith. Bonds was brought up and was being tailored as a lead-off man. He was slim and fast and stole a lot of bases. Good eye for the ball. As he got older, he lost a step (as we all do), recognized this, and built himself into a power hitter to lengthen his career.
