I wouldn't vote for him, but his BA is pretty much a non-factor for me; he produced/created a lot of runs, more than the high average guys, with his HR, SLG%, and walks. No, his late career andro spike is the reason I don't think he belongs.
I think it's fair to ask how much of his run production is steroid related. Especially given that he's claiming the reason he did steroids was to help keep him on the field (i.e. the Andy Pettite defense). Staying healthy (longevity) is part of the hall criteria, and you can make the case that steroids even inflated his walk totals.
