Hell, the man has 13 more total bases than Barry Bonds this year, even AFTER Bonds set the intentional walks record. Not to mention Ichiro is batting 3 points higher (.372) than Bonds with 304 more AB's (your average is supposed to go down, not up with more AB's!). That's just absolutely insane.

How many more plate appearances does he have than Bonds? Not to mention total bases does not include walks.

Doesn't matter, Bonds has an .820SLG to Ichiro's .459, and Bonds has twice as many extra basehits... show me any guy with over 300+ more AB's than Bonds who is batting .370+ with more total bases than Bonds. Ichiro is in a league all by himself.

Wow, Ichiro has more at bats AND you're telling me he's getting more total bases? Amazing!

Yes, it is amazing! It'd also be fact that Bonds wouldn't be able to hold Ichiro's jockstrap if they both played in the deadball era, where most of Bond's HR's would have been flyballs!

c'mon no more arguments btwn bonds and ichiro. both are AMAZING players and will go down in baseball history as among the elite of players. Enough comparisons.


I'm enjoying this season very much as my dodgers are finally in the playoff picture (matching up against the SD this week and SF during the weekend!!)
bonds gunning down 700+ hr's for his career
ichiro and his mad heating streak

this season rocks.

He went 4/6 tonight and has 247 hits now -- he only needs 10 to tie the record. The M's have 10 games left!

What is he, 9 for 11 over the last two games? He got into a little slump about a week ago, but he sure broke out in a big way. 1 for 5 for 10 straight nights ties the record, somehow I can't imagine he's going to have any trouble breaking it by at least 5 hits.

Yes, Barry Bonds has taken steroids IMO. Federal agents said he received packages from Balco labs as early as 2000 that contained the undetectable anabolic steroid THG, according to the San Fran Chronicle. He packed on 30 lbs of solid muscle in 2001 at age 37. His hat size increased 2 sizes at age 37. Curt Schilling has not mentioned him by name, but said it's "obvious" that a certain player has been on Human Growth Hormone b/c his facial bone structure has changed (hat size going up by 2 sizes is a good indication of this, and HGH is also undetectable by MLB testing). Bonds met Greg Anderson (man found guilty of distributing THG for BALCO labs who was Bond's personal trainer) at a SF gym, and Anderson then introduced Bonds to Victor Conte, owner of BALCO. It is fact that Gary Sheffield even flew out for 2-3 weeks to train with them. Anderson was also Giambi's trainer. Conte and Anderson have both been charged with distributing THG to top athletes. There is no doubt in my mind that Bonds took THG and HGH, and it's even been reported by Tim Montgomery (superstar sprinter) during BALCO case testimony that Bonds also took Winstrol.

In the case of McGuire, he has admitted to taking Andro, which was a legal OTC supplement but has since been banned just because it's a prohormone. Studies have shown that Andro has little to no effect on bodybuilders, having 1/100 of the effect of an anabolic steroid. You can make your own conclusions. Also, if you look at McGuire now, he's just as big so I doubt he was on any type of anabolic steroid.
