Bonds trivia

[KnightsRule]

If Baroid retired today he would be one of 4 players to rank in the all-time top 10 in both career on-base percentage and sluggin percentage.  Who are the other three?

The other three in order would be:

1  Ted Williams

2  Babe Ruth

3  Lou Gehrig

i got a late start today but i would not have guessed LG

good question

[KnightsRule]

Babe ruth(firts in slugging and second in on-base), Ted williams(second in slugging and first in on-base), and lou gehrig(third in slugging, fifth in on-base).  Bonds is currently seventh in slugging and eighth in on-base.

As I have always said Teddy Ballgame is best ever. just imagine his numbers if he didnt go fight in two wars.  LK I know Korea was a conflict and not a war

Bonds isn't even a .300 lifetime hitter? He is a pretender!

[Velcro]

I say just walk him every at bat for the next 5 years

[Bullshiznitz]

Yeah I guess those 6 MVP's are all a joke? I guess him being the only member of the 500-500 club make him a pretender? I guess holding the single season record for OPS, OBP, SLG %, BB's and HR's are all a joke also ???

[Velcro]

you got it... the question is, would he have gotten those if he weren't on roids?

hmm...  look at how is production has went UP near the end of his career, and when he was a weak skinny player, they were no more than average.
