Here's Why Barry Bonds Still Would Have Been One Of The Best Players In Baseball [View all]

If He Played Without a Bat.

Pretty interesting view of what Barry Bond's incredible 2004 season meant statistically. The caveat here is that the pitcher would not know that Bond's didn't have a bat. What if he decided to just show up at home plate with the intent to never swing at a pitch?
