Hammerin Hank had the longevity, he wouldn't leave the game without the record. He didn't care if it took him several more years than Ruth or if it took Him over 2,000 more at bats than Ruth to break 714, he wanted the record itself. That's why I don't see anyone but Sammy sticking around for it. Rickey Henderson would, but not for the same reason, he's just a fuckin "me, me, me" player.
Sammy is on a tear again, he's gone from 33 to 41 homers in a blink of an eye. This may be 5 straight years with atleast 50 homers. He's at 491 homers now, he'll be in the 500 club most definetly by the end of the year and he'll be only 34. Aaron played till he was 43 or 42 I believe. So sammy has 3 years on bonds, even more. He should be in the 600 club by mid 36 years of age. I can see him sticking around till he's 40 or so. But just like McGwire and Griffey, the power can go at anytime.
