Giants vs. Cardinals, Lincecum vs Pujols tonight!!

<< < (3/3)

OG Hack Wilson:
bonds pre-steroids was a great 4 tool guy  (was about a .288 hitter...that's league average some years)


but pujols is in another stratosphere through age 29...only Ruth and Gehrig blow him away  (because Williams and Dimaggio did war service and Josh Gibson was born the wrong color lol)

Tay:
I wouldn't say Cain pitched a gem, but he did what he always does and gave us a chance to win. Wainwright made us look silly and went a full 9 innings but couldn't even get the win. Only getting 1 run with the bases loaded was tough, we had our chance to break the game open but we had 2 strikeouts and a Sac Fly in between.

As great as Pujols is, Bonds was on such a ridiculous level that I don't see anybody reaching again. There were times where you just knew he was going to come through in the big situations, against so many great pitchers. And Timmy is amazing, most exciting pitcher in the majors.

bonds in 2004 was insane...232 walks in like 140 games of play



however I'll take Pujols playing 160 games over Bonds only playing 130-140 games in his steroid-enduced "prime"
