One of the all time greats. Sickening to watch the way he has been disrespected. Top 10 all time player.

one of the best ever. Great bounce back season last year. I wish he didn't cheat though. That will tarnish his career.

Legend.

He's 75 away. He's not getting that in two seasons.

He'll retire, he won't keep playing just for the record.

Guy is old..baseball legend

Damn prima donna. Wish they could give him the proverbial middle finger by trading him to a team like the Brewers or Padres to end his career.

Now he's denied the comments. He's totally going for the record.
