Clean Barry Bonds had 100 WAR career by age 32. 🐐
Bonds easily
Bonds was one steroid injection away from Attacking Downtown Toyko with Fire-breath
From the eye test, his eye hand coordination was unmatched. His swing speed, I'll let others decide. Most of his career his, he was a 5 tool player.
Hs had a hall of fame career with Pirates&Giants
Bonds is the goat 🐐 to me
Barry Bonds was One Steroid injection away from Conquering the Planet Krypton and destroying the earth.
It’s Bonds and it’s not close.
With *
Bonds was One steroid injection away from Being the first human To lift a Firetruck.
@@amonrodriguez3518 don’t you have some grass to cut? Go play soccer.
lol wow read my name and automatically resort to racism.
Bonds was BOX OFFICE !! When he came to bat espn always showed it
Bonds was One Steroid injection away from Destroying Tokyo with eye laser.
Barry bonds was one Steroid injection away from Curing Death and becoming an immortal being.
Rickey Henderson deserves a mention
Yep, Henderson sure does: Most runs, most stolen bases, 3000 hits, MVP.
@@flame-sky7148and didn’t cheat like bonds
@@amonrodriguez3518didn’t test positive…. I love Rickey, but you go look at some old Oakland pics with Mark, Jose and Rickey, there was a year where he came back from offseason a monster
Mike Schmidt.
@@spacedude1145 best 3rdbasemen tied with Brett.
Hank Aaron always gets disrespected in this type of conversation.
He’s not living anymore and when he was Willie Mays was still alive.
Barry Bonds is the best OF ALL TIME
These guys are so lost
Agreed! They tried to name several deserving players, but clearly overlooked *many*! (Hank Aaron, Stan Musial, Mickey Mantle, Nolan Ryan, Rickey Henderson, etc) ..... but then again it was a stipulation of "still living"
@@JayMJ23JayMJ23complaining about why they didn’t bring up dead people on a video about greatest living player is certainly a choice
What's the answer to the question then if they're too dumb to get it right?
@@JayMJ23JayMJ23Nolan Ryan isn’t close to best living player. He was rarely the best pitcher even on his own team. Also only 83 WAR in 27 year career. Roger Clemens had 139 WAR in 24 year career.
In the entire history of the game, no batter has ever appeared at the plate more likely to get on base than Bonds.
Right after Tony Gwynn.
Barry Bonds stolen bases get overlooked way too often.
There are only 8 300HR/300SB players, 1 400/400, 1 500/500, 1 600/500, and one 762/514. Barry Bonds has 762 home runs and 514 stolen bases and no other player has even 400/400. That is ALL pre steroids(obviously the bulk of the stolen bases were prior, but he still had 411 or 445 home runs pre-juice depending if you're saying 1998 or 1999 was his last clean season and still over 400 SBs.)
People talk like Barry was Juan Pierre slapping the ball around before the juice came into the picture
I forgot to say the reason I said all that is because if you needed anything to separate him from Mike Schmidt, that's it. You can also use his 50 points higher OPS or 20 points higher batting average.
No disrespect to one of the greatest of all time, but I do not like pre-juice Barry being comparable to Schmidt. I just don't agree
Bonds + pujols + Arod + Ken G
It’s Bonds and it’s not close 🤷🏻♂️
Bonds then Griffey then shohei right now
Bonds is the greatest baseball player of all time point blank period
Ricky Henderson
Bonds and griffey
Bonds was One Steroid Injection away from Becoming the Sun god Ra. Ruler of the undead.
With everyone that did steroids but nobody hit 756, even Sosa or McGwire. That is a skill that nobody had
Pedro at his peak reached the highest career ELO rating of any pitcher ever and no one is close to him
You mean ERA+. The problem with Pedro is he only had those peak seasons in 99-00. Between that other players eclipse what he did and he couldn’t pitch deep into games after his shoulder injury at the end of the 2000 season.
Derek Jeter ? I know he has no regular season mvps but they give those to last place team players some times
Two fools talking nonsense😂
Fr
Bonds played today he'll be worth a billion dollars.
Need to go back and look some highlights of Rickey Henderson
Bro forgot about Pete rose
Only Shohei Ohtani can top Barry Bonds on this list, but he still needs to do more.
Easily Bonds lol. Bonds pre 1999 was top 2-4 of all time already
Bonds. Pujols and A-Rod are the greatest living players right now.
This dude doesn’t even look like he played coach pitch
Bonds. Griffey. Schmidt. Henderson. Pujols.
Bonds best player to ever live
Hembo dismissed Griffey too easily. He was a better defensive player than Bonds and did not juice.
Agreed
Pujols should have stayed in STL
he said he grew up worshiping Joe Dimaggio. joe dimaggio stopped playing in 51. thats like me saying i worshiped juan maricial who i never seen play. MMG
Steroids is insane man lol. Barry Bonds was peaking at age 36
Barry Bonds was One Steroid injection away from evolving to a bigger Pokemon. Also The Answer is Pete Rose
Barry Lamar Bonds
Ryan express #2
Did they just Almost skip Albert Pujols !
Once a player cheated, he disqualified himself from the conversation. Bond did it to himself.
Never got caught. So did he cheat?
@@ethantymburski9646Yes.
@@ethantymburski9646he did get caught tho lol. Or he would be in the hall
He never got caught.
He never tested positive.
The BALCO investigation was overwhelming. He's guilty as sin.
Pujols
This is what’s wrong with sports broadcasting you guys don’t see the bigger picture.
Shohei Ohtani
I am
It's Ohtani!!!
Barry Bonds was one steroid injection away from beating Chuck Norris in a Fist Fight.
Bonds is the greatest player ever. If you killed Bonds career after the 98' season (as most do), his WAR is greater than Griffey jr. whole career. Pitchers were juicing, and baseball turned a blind eye and tested too late (Bonds never tested positive). Bonds had more walks than anybody, he had 500 sb, Bonds went to college, while most deadball or liveball era guys went pro right out of high school (except Gehrig) therefore he has a later start, he faced HoF relief closers unlike all the eras before the 1970's, missed a some time due to the strike shortened seasons, had to hit leadoff for the first 4 seasons with the Pirates when he should have been down in the order to get more rbi opportunities (they later did). Baseball should have tested sooner like in the early 90's when they saw Dykstra and Phillies team or when they saw Canseco. Bonds left baseball in a quandary.
Facts!! Bonds walked 200x batted over .300 and had like 50 strikeouts (perspective; Judge strikes-out 200 every year)
So why cheat then..,,
@@amonrodriguez3518 There are bunch of ways of trying to get advantages (cheat), the whole segregated era of not allowing darker skin people to play the game is "cheating" the game (while nobody was punished). Bonds chose to use the cream and the clear because of other guys who were juicing were being glorified. Let's go through the chronology, because most people like to start at 2001 instead of 1988. So baseball could have done something about the roids with Canseco in 1988, baseball could have done something about roids in 1993 with the Phillies, baseball could have done something about roids in 1996 when Ken Caminiti won the MVP (Bonds had a 40/40) that year, baseball could have done something about roids in 1998 Sosa & McGwire, and again in 1999. They saw the adnro in his locker and didn't care about it. Then Bonds says okay, this is what you guys want, I'll give it to you. So if you're like a 4.0 student in a classroom and other students are not as smart as you, start getting 100's on exams for the first three terms, and start getting all the praise, and the teacher and admin are ignoring the shady stuff that they are doing (while not in the syllabus or student handbook), well when you decide to do it too while already being the best student in the class, you're like, "what's the problem why do care about this now, when these other inferior students were doing this most of the school year."
Bonds Career can only be measured by his pirate years. The man was One steroid injection away from stopping bullets with his mind.
@@kylemason883 Barry bonds was One steroid injection way from being able to beat chuck norris is a fist fight.
Mike trout aaron judge ken griffey jr
Griffey Jr. was the best all time he just didn't use roids to get and stay healthy like Bonds who is the second greatest all time because he already was on his way to being the greatest of all time but because a roided up white man in McGuire and I don't even know what Sosa is took steroids and got the spotlight because of it Bonds said the hell with this I'm juicing as well. On roids it's Bonds off roids it's Griffey Jr.
No. Bonds can maybe be top 10 but the cheating distorts it too much
It's Shohei, he's the only option.
Sure. Just like Lance Armstrong is the greatest living cyclist.
Hembo is a fool
He would have been a hofer with his career in Pittsburgh, so wtf?
Fa--
absolutely not Barry Bonds. Greatest currently active baseball player - probably Shohei Ohtani. Greatest living baseball player - impossible to say. I don’t like saying one person or one team is the greatest of all time. I prefer saying one of the greatest of all time. I would much rather say they are all great instead of trying to decide who the greatest is or trying to decide who is better than whom.
say it with me everyone......Ken Griffey Jr.......period
Miguel Cabrera
I’d say ken Griffey Jr he never took steroids
Ohtani is not only the best living player, he is also the GOAT.
Goat with no chips, no 3,000 hits , or 500 home runs
@@user-fo6qo5on3o Well, how many GOATs on your list also has 38 wins and 3.01 ERA and 608 strikeouts?
@@George-f8hok so they don’t pitch , but they actually play defense and win gold gloves so they have things and do stuff ohtani doesn’t
Ohtani. A team of ohtanis beats a team of bonds easy.
Barry Bonds in the worst
Easy. Shohei Ohtani. Next question.
Yes, not even close
Can we stop patronizing cheaters…those guys ruined the record books cost guys HOF plagues & $$$.
And he cheated he’s the sheep
How is this even a question in someone’s mind .?? Gtfo
Shohei Ohtani
