Anyways, my general point is that while Aarons post 35 burst is real, it's bit disingenuous to mention this w/o mentioning that At Bats/HR for the league in general went through massive changes over this time period.

Would you agree it's likewise a bit disingenuous to isolate Bonds late career surge as "evidence" w/o mentioning that HR's are up across the board during the same period (1999-2007 )as compared to the preceding era he is measured by his earlier stats (1986-1998).

If we take Hank's surge in context, then one should only hope we do the same with Barry's.

But up to this point, it's been taking one in context, and the other out of context.
