MLB counts them. And the asterisk was done by some weird guy with too much money and the Hall of Fame explicitly said the asterisk doesn’t reflect their views.
He made that decision based on people voting what he should do with it. That was the popular choice. I know that they officially count, but that whole era is a pretty big stain on the MLB to a lot of fans. What I’m saying is that Acuna’s accomplishment is remarkable if he did it without juicing.
