Some of us remember Barry Bonds when he used to spend his time between lifting weights and working out as hard as he could to construct his strength for long nights of standing in left field and on the base paths following his many walks.

His right knee no longer allows it and for that reason he is now carrying a few extra pounds. There has been many times this years when the thought of seeing him retire has crossed my mind. He has promised himself to lose more than 28 pounds on this off season. The main reason for this is that the doctors have told the MLB slugger that carrying such an amount of weight is not good for his knee since he already has three surgeries on it.

Barry Bonds is now 41 years old and he just hit his 704 home-run, and as he still defends his swing against anybody and he is third on the career home run list, only 10 more to tie Babe Ruth
