PED's don't allow someone to throw one of the best splitters of all time.
Stop this nonsense. He was one of the greatest pitchers ever. End of story
I'll be visiting the hall next month. I'll be wearing a Roger Clemens jersey.
Mike Piazza is the best hitter he faced
One of the greatest of all time. HOF doesn't matter. The numbers speak for themselves.
Usually the guilty ones can't say the word PEDs
Greatest pitcher I've seen in the last thirty five years. Is what it is.
I met him in 2009 at the staybridge suites in Palmdale, CA. Really nice guy singed two baseballs for me and my brother took photos and talked with my family for about 30 minutes.
He is still my favorite pitcher to play the game. He inspired me to play all and pitch. I threw a drop off slider and high heat thanks to The Rocket. I was scouted as a freshman because of my pitching style amd gift of throwing hard but my style was his. Often imitated but never duplicated.
Mr. Roger Clemens belongs in the HOF!!!
Put Clement in the HOF .. Jose Canseco deserve the HOF for cleaning MLB in 2000
7 Cy Young awards
4600 Strike Outs
354 Wins
Ouch!!!
Exactly..

Evan Smith didn't do his homework.
Guilty people usually can talk a while about nothing
A general disregard Beauregard clemens
Hof. No doubt.
You both know why he's not getting in and that's because he is a degenerate cheater!
Thankfully some American still have values morals and ethics they are willing to stand up for.
I enjoyed watching Rodger Clemens as a teenager in the 80s. But I realize that Rodger Clemens just like Lance Armstrong would never have won seven titles respectively in their own sporting fields.
I am thankful that Rodger Clemens, Barry bonds, Mark McGwire and probably 50 or 60 other players that she'd either be removed from the hall or never have a chance to enter the Hall of Fame
he never answered the question
I hate to say this because he was such a great pitcher, so intimidating so overpowering, but if I was there and could ask a question I would go straight to Mike Piazza. When he threw that bat shard at Piazza my jaw dropped. It was the most psychotic Act since Juan Marichal attacked Johnny Roseboro with his Bat. It would be very telling to see whst Clemens would have to say about that. I wanted to see a great game but the Umpire really blew it. Clemens had to be ejected immediately. It was actually worse than Zinedine Zidane and the World Cup against Italy because it was so violent and dangerous
What are you talking about? That bat was tossed at the ground and rolled towards Piazza. You’re soft!
He answered that question in another part of this interview.
Roid rage on display guy was whacked out of his mind
I went from 190lbs to 290lbs and just kept throwing harder. Maybe he’s the first guy that just keeps getting better as they got older, looking like a wrestler, or he was juicing. Everyone in baseball was juicing in the 90s. Plain and simple.
Did jeter change much in 20 years? He filled out, but didn’t look like other folks that were known juicers.
But he didn't get better he had an era over 4 for the yankees and didn't pitch full seasons with the astros
He was enhanced with talent ....
Roids were very common then.
To evaluate a roider fairly, you only need to look at his stats before PEDs. Before he signed with the blue jays, he had 3 cy youngs, 1 mvp, 5 AS, and no success in postseasons. After 1995, his age 32 season, he was rapidly deteriorating into a solid #2 or #3 starter, just as most power pitchers would. Had he not taken PEDs, he would pitch another 5 or 6 seasons, average some 3.6 era in his last few years, get close to 300 wins. He would be a solid first or second ballot HOF, but that's it. He was not in the same league with Randy Johnson, Pedro Martinez or Greg Maddux. He wasn't amoung the GOATs before he got his hands on PEDs, so he is not the GOAT anyways.
Illegal steroids.
He deserves to not get in ....he knows he cheated.
Because he cheated.
@Jeriba Shigan yes.
He’s a cheater
Barry Bonds, Mark McGuire, Sammy Sosa, shall we continue to give reasons why RC is not in the HoF?
And of course RC is DJT fan because they both cheated.
Nobody cheated as bad as your boy Biden did in this last election. F off.
Because he is a cheater. Very easy question to answer.
Cavanaugh and Trump? What's that?
Mark Woldin It reveals his politics and is a rather desperate attempt to claim victimhood. I am not a fan of the Hall of Fame selection and election process and don't understand why so much input, influence and power is given to baseball writers but I wouldn't ever want to compare myself to Trump and Kavanaugh. To each his own.
ROIDS
He lied to a grand jury, did steroids, and he threw a bat at a hall-of-famer: THAT’S why.
He cheated
