In what world is .471/.700/1.294 (Bonds in the 2002 World Series) not successful?

So Bonds in prime steroid form was playoff worthy, but Bonds without roids was what, worst playoff performer ever? Exactly why then should I choose him to win?

from reading many of the comments here, I wouldve thought that Bonds had 4 or 5 rings. I wonder why that's not the case? Fact is none of these guys has been successful in the playoffs, but one of them was at least exciting - think Seattle vs Yankees, and then remember the spirit and competitiveness that Griffey brought to the table. As a matter of fact, I think that series alone make him the choice for me, but he had other great qualities in his prime too: his beautiful swing, his have fun at all times early years, and his defensive acrobatics to name a few.

This shouldn't be close. For the people not voting for Bonds, do you even [censored] know who Barry Bonds is?

I know enough to not want him on my team. Why are the numbers the only important aspect for you kyleb?

Were you around in 2001? Did you realize that Barry Bonds got intentionally walked with the bases empty?

Full post season stats:
9 Postseason Ser 2-7 48 151 33 37 8 2 9 24 52 26 .245 .433 .503 9 1 0 4 1

But sample size, yadda yadda, only one year of prime barry bonds, etc.

But like taking Griffey is giving up about 60 runs a year (straight from RC difference).
