Aside from the name making you think it's some horribly evil drug that makes you grow a third arm out of your chest, I wonder if HGH actually made Bonds a better hitter, or if it made him appear to be a better hitter because it kept him healthy at a time when he was struggling with injuries. Right before he allegedly started taking it, and right after he stopped, he started suffering from serious injuries, and I wonder if the difference between a clean and a doped Bonds had less to do with his performance and more to do with whether or not he was still playing baseball.
