What the Future Once Held for Bonds

by Geoff Young on January 31st, 2008

My latest article over at Hardball Times re-examines career projections for Barry Bonds from before the 1997 season. Hint: He hit a few more home runs than predicted. ;-)

    Do you have the projections for other players too? I’m sure they exceeded what they were projected to do. clemens im sure did, maybe sosa and mcgwire too?

    No, I don’t believe Bill James was publishing his career projections at that time (I can’t find them, anyway). It would be interesting to go back and run those numbers as well.
