He’s probably not there due to all that 'historical controversy' stuff. Game developers usually play it safe and steer clear.

Barry Bonds isn't in MLB The Show because he isn't a member of the MLB Players Association, which makes it complicated to get his likeness in the game.

Bonds has been missing from the series for years due to licensing issues. Basically, no MLBPA = no Bonds in the game.

They can't include Barry Bonds because of legal and licensing hurdles. It's kind of a bummer but understandable.
