Barry Bonds was the greatest hitter ever.

I grew up a San Francisco Giants fan, and thus also a Barry Bonds fan. However you feel about the steroids things, I think it's undeniable that he was one of the best players ever. Craig Robinson over at Flip Flop Fly Ball makes some AWESOME infographics, and one of his recent ones about Barry caught my eye:


No one will ever be able to reproduce what he did between 2001-2004. Part of it will be that no one will ever be able to juice the way he (and the rest of MLB) did. Look at those ridiculous slugging numbers! And the amount of intentional walks in 2004! If he's not the best ever, he's certainly the best player I'll ever see live.
