Bonds. greatest of all time?
#8
Quote:Ruth was simply a fat load. He swung for the fences every play which is why he struck out so much. Pitching was so bad, that they had no movement on their pitches, and they were probably pitching high 80s instead of high 90s
Actually, he didn't become heavy until the end of his career. He was a great outfielder, pitcher, and all around athlete, certainly not a fat load. And I think its virtually impossible to compare 20s and 30s pitching to todays. The only fair way to compare is using stats, and Ruth is #1 at this point. That being said, if Bonds plays 4 more years, it certainly can be argued he is the greatest. What he is doing right now is astounding. He is at the top of his game and the league when most players retire at his age. And I've always thought his bad image was mostly media propoganda anyway.
