You are the GM for a playoff baseball team. You have the first draft pick. Who would you choose?
Question:Barry Bonds or George Brett?
Answers:
How do you calculate ERA, slugging percentage? What are saber-metrics?
Bonds, Bonds, and Bonds, then maybe Brett, but probably Bonds. He is a Hall-of-Famer, even before the steroids he was a Hall-of-Famer. If you take his numbers before 2000 he still had 8 Gold Gloves, 3 MVP's, 500 stolen bases, and 445 home runs which is a Hall-of-Fame resume. All around he is and was a great player for years.George Brett now doubt.
If you look at the stats, George Brett is the overwhelming choice.

In baseball, at what point does a foul ball to the catcher become a foul out instead of a strike?
Hmmmm, have to set aside personal feeling when making this choice, but would have to go with Bonds considering he's been putting up huge numbers for going on 20 years.George Brett, hands down.
He's a Plus-Plus defensive player at a cornerstone position, hits for average and power, displays leadership capability and doesn't put up any red flags for personality type.
Bonds is a left fielder. It's an easier spot to fill with a power bat. And his personality draws all sorts of red flags.
Where can I go online and look up the price of several old baseball cards that I have?
Soriano, they guy can hit, field, and run.Has anyone seen the pittsburgh pirates ugly red alternate home jersey's?
George Brett, one of the best 3B of all time. I'd find someone to plug into LF that could produce (Teddy Ballgame, Stan "The Man" Musial, even Manny Ramirez).My curveballs broken!some help?
George Brett! He did so much more then just hit home runs. The guy was an absolute ball player. He could play good defense and he tough as nails on offense.Barry Bonds is just a jerk pumped full of who knows what swinging a bat trying to break one record. He doesnt care about his teamates or anything, but himself.
Can you throw the ball to the runner to get them out?(baseball)?
George Brett - I'm a little biased, he's my favorite player of all time. You get more than just the stats with Brett, you get the intensity that he played with and that raises the play of everyone around him.More Questions & Answers...
