Bonds. Dare I ask?

[Tis]

6 consecutive games with a home run now (assuming the game he sat out doesnt count)

the record is only 8.

[awwchrist]

Walk him or he tears you a new one.

Pretty amazing that's what it comes down to.

[Tis]

it makes me sick to think what he would do in a lineup where they had to pitch to him more often.

it makes me sick to think what he would do in a lineup where they had to pitch to him more often.

Which makes me wonder...why haven't the Yankees traded for him yet?

[jbones733]

was talking to my pops tonight when Bonds hit it out to dead center, I told him Bonds is the best ball player I have ever seen

[Madison]

Why they continue to pitch to him is a mystery to me............

[erknjerk]

He's "on pace" to hit 99 round dingers

I don't know if he's the best player ever because I don't think you can make valid comparisons with players from different eras, but he is without a doubt the best player I have ever seen (I'm 22) and the best, most dominating player I've seen in any sport ever, with the possible exception of Wayne Gretzky. If he was pitched to as much as Pujols and A-Rod are, I have no doubt he'd hit at least 80 homers, and I bet he'd top 100. I know that sounds crazy, but just watch him and see how few good pitches he gets to hit compared to Pujols, A-Rod or any other player. He hits just as many HR as they do in 200 less at-bats, playing in a much worse lineup with no protection and in one of the 2 or 3 best pitchers parks in baseball. If he got 600 ABs he'd top 70 easily.

in a block buster the deal the yankees trade gary shefield, bernie williams. and mike mussina for barry bonds. I think it would take at least that or even mroe to get him in real life.

Dont forget Michael Jordan, Im sure you have seen him play. I do agree that Bonds is probably the best baseball player I have ever seen play, but I think it is difficult to place any baseball player in the category of the most dominant athlete. Not that baseball players arent amazing athletes, it is just that baseball is a sport that relies so much on your team, and there is only so much a player can do to dominate the game (as in MJ could take the last second shot and win the game). Pitchers on the other hand, I think someone like Clemens or Nolan Ryan are more dominant than Bonds is, but it is hard to say who is a better baseball player. Well, you get what I am saying.
