Here's my other argument: Take a guy who is a "star" player....a positive force for winning for his team, yet is not a HOF caliber player. My example is Roger Maris, who, at 38 WAR was a heck of a player but not Hall material. Feed him steriods! How many more home runs would be have jacked out of the park? Maybe enough to put his WAR within the Hall's reach. Or, how many more dingers would injury prone Mantle have hit with the extra help? Or Aaron?

The Hall assumes some sort of even playing field. Absent that the standards would be a joke. And no, don't tell me about the guys who are in who don't deserve to be there. The veterans committee let that happen in the 50's - that's a whole different argument!
