Bonds as a DH in 2007? He Could Really Do That!

The attention has been squarely on Barry Bonds as he closes in on Babe Ruth's 714 home runs. However, it's Hank Aaron, with 755 homers, who holds the ultimate record. Given the limited number of games left in the season, surpassing Aaron seems a tall order for Bonds. This situation, though, opens up some intriguing possibilities.
Bonds has had an extraordinary career in Major League Baseball, blemished only by steroid allegations. He remains without two key achievements: a championship ring and, potentially, the top spot on the home run list. After the Giants' collapse in the 2002 World Series against the Angels, Bonds's chances of winning a championship seemed to fade. Nonetheless, his desire to surpass Aaron remains strong, despite any claims to the contrary. Bonds thrives on proving his critics wrong, whether they be fans tossing plastic syringes or media members suggesting he retire.
Looking ahead, Bonds might find himself as a designated hitter for a contending team in 2007. His agent, Jeff Borris, mentioned to Newsday that retirement wasn't expected, and switching leagues to become a DH was a real possibility. Bonds even suggested he could play 155 games if he didn’t need to field.
“Just as a DH? I could do that,” Bonds exclaimed with enthusiasm.
It's easy to imagine George Steinbrenner of the Yankees keenly interested in such a scenario. Bonds’s ability to hit home runs with just one perfect pitch is unparalleled. Recently, he's been batting .300 with three homers and nine RBIs over ten games, not bad for someone who started the season at .190. Allowing Bonds to focus solely on hitting might enable him to reach 40 homers or more. Even Giants coach Felipe Alou speculated that Bonds could hit 800 homers as a DH.
The missing championship ring is another factor. Bonds, with his seven MVP awards, eight Gold Gloves, and two batting titles, lacks only a championship to complete his illustrious career. If the Yankees fail to win the World Series this year, Steinbrenner might just consider bringing Bonds to the Bronx. Bonds would likely embrace this opportunity to prove himself on baseball’s biggest stage and potentially secure that elusive ring.
This scenario could lead to one of the biggest moves in baseball since Babe Ruth joined the Yankees. The media would have a field day, and fans can only imagine the excitement.
Conclusion
Whatever unfolds, the baseball world watches with bated breath. Could Bonds as a DH spark a defining chapter in his career? It certainly opens the door for countless stories and endless intrigue.
