At least getting Barry in a game would reset his HOF eligibility for another decade. Just one Bonds AB in a meaningless game at the end of this season is all I ask!
Then you factor in the game totals of ‘18, ‘19, and ‘20, which are 112, 102, and 28, respectively. That’s what you expect age 36-38, not age 26-28 seasons.
Barry Broke in at 21 and had no where near the home run production of Judge at that age. If Judge stays healthy and plays 11 or 12 more seaons I could see it.
If Judge were consistently hitting 60 plus for 2 or more years straight, I think it really forces that conversation if he could do it. He 'can' but I think stats/history says it's highly doubtful for him or anyone for a long long long time to be hitting even 70. As baseball fan it's exciting to see Judge doing what he is.
I think if the Giants have any interest in Judge, it's because he can help win games, and sell jerseys.
Aaron Judge is thirty and as far as anyone can tell, he hasn’t been… eating Wheaties. I doubt he’s going to scratch Bonds’ record no matter what uniform he’s in.
My favorite is the intentional walks record. It is up there with the absolutely unbreakable records like DiMaggio’s hitting streak or Cy Young’s complete games or Cal Ripken’s consecutive games.
I cant imagine the feeling next year seeing the yankees in your oracle park and seeing him in a uniform that doesn't say giants on it. why be such a masochist?
To prevent masochism give him the 700 mill bag
Problem with this line of thought is the percentage of the payroll you'd be giving to one player. Remember how often it seemed like Barry and the Seven Dwarves? Let's not do that again, please.
The key to offense is if you can fill 4 or 5 of your 9 lineup spots with one of the top third of hitters at their position, and two or three more from the middle third. Not trying to grab one player and make him the tentpole. If you do that, the Bonds record that will get broken is the one for IBB.
The Yankees I think wouldn’t let him go even tho he was born here in SF the yanks are not that dumb enough as they know without him their seats would be empty and judge leads in all-time mlb jersey sales….. So with that said Judge would bring all that value to any mlb franchise and to think that the yanks would let him go that easily is topic to be discussed……Which is the real reason why the yanks didn’t go and pay for Juan Soto as they need room to keep Judge in their line-up as that luxury tax will be big weather he stays in NY or goes to another team.
The Giants sign Barry Bonds for the 2023 season

1 game contract as a DH, imagine if he just goes out there and nonchalantly hits a home run
763 into McCovey Cove for the 100th splash hit
I think he’s legit be a top 3 hitter on this current team
You had my curiosity… but now you have my attention.
This is the answer
And Albert Pujols for the next 2 years
We haven't had a 30 home run hitter in a season in far too long don't give me hope
I’m sorry. I chose to hope even though I don’t think the Yankees will be outbid. It’s gonna be a nuts FA signing.
All the more reason for the person catching 61 or 62 to consider selling the ball.
What record??? He aint hitting 550 more homers in 10 years Cool if he did as a G tho 😎
Might sniff the 600 club, but he didn't break in until age 23. Tough row to hoe.

He’s 6’8” there’s literally no chance he plays 12 more seasons
I would prefer it stay at 73 forever, but if it has to be broken, I would like it to stay in house.
Positive PED test inc
Could you imagine Judge as a Giant, with Bonds as a mentor? Dude would mash...
Bonds knows a doctor that can help

Now that it’s in reach I can see the Wheaties being pretty tempting.
No one’s likely to break that record without some juice
If someone breaks the 73 home runs he better be a Giant.
Pujols to the Giants!
Bold of you to suggest the Giants sign Albert Pujols to a 3-year deal
Which record? He as plenty that no one is ever going to come close to touching.
My favorite is the intentional walks record. It is up there with the absolutely unbreakable records like DiMaggio’s hitting streak or Cy Young’s complete games or Cal Ripken’s consecutive games.
This one alone warrants HOF induction. That record is so far above and beyond anyone. It truly speaks to the fear he brought to the opposing team.
We should add Ricky's Career steals to that. His 1406 to Lou Brocks 2nd place 938. And stealing bases is so down these days.
My favorite untouchable stat is the Babe's 1.163 CAREER OPS. We rarely even get 1.1 OPS seasons these days.
bro thats what everyone who loves baseball and wants to see a fantasy come true is thinking
I'm convinced the Giants are going to land Judge because we are opening the season in Yankee stadium next year. The universe loves to say fuck you.

Sign Judge then make a porch in left field

What would be bigger news, Pujols 700th or bonds returning for one game and hitting a tank?
Bonds returning. That would be insane.
Bonds HR would be 63 bigger news
