Question:
For years, the Baseball Hall of Fame has officially steered clear of the question as to how voters should handle the candidacies of players connected to performance-enhancing drugs. Initially, two of the game’s best players—Roger Clemens and Barry Bonds—could only muster about one-half of the 75 percent approval needed to be voted in. In 2019, both players received more than 50 percent, a significant threshold that has historically indicated futureelection, although their support only increased to 59.5 percent and 59.1 percent, respectively. However, their approval rating increased to over 60 percent in 2020: Clemens, 61.0 percent; Bonds, 60.7 percent. Do you believe Clemens and Bonds should be voted into the Hall of Fame? Use ethical reasoning to answer this question.
