756.
My thoughts on Barry Bonds can be summed up as follows:
- He is the owner of a perfect power stroke.
- He is one of the best baseball players of all time.
- His disciplined batting approach throughout his life was unbelievably impressive.
- His transformation from youthful, high-average toolsy outfielder to older, powerful, more disciplined slugger is a common career path amongst all baseball players - not just the elite ones.
- He has been branded with many others with the scarlet S for steroids.
The steroids issue is something I won’t go on about in this blog, but suffice to say that he’s never failed an MLB drug test and that I don’t see the media scrutiny over the players that have (Ryan Franklin, Juan Rincon, Rafael Betancourt, etc).
Beautiful.
