Message #2517 of 6634  *NEW* To :   All From :   Jaydawg   Subject :   Barry Bonds was a Brave for one night, according to Atlanta GM John Schuerholz in his new book, 'Built To Win'. Date :   3/11/06, 09:12am Bonds would've already broken Aaron's record if he played some years at Fulton Co. Stadium (AKA- The Launching Pad). John Schuerholz had a trade all set up sending reliever Alejandro Pena, outfielder Keith Mitchell, and a future prospect to Pittsburgh for Barry. Schuerholz backed out of the deal the next day because Pirate Manager Jim Leyland was furious that Bonds was being traded with a year left on his contract. The next year, Ba-Bo went on to play for the team with the Halloween costumes and the rest is in juiced up history. • Previous Topic • Next Topic • Reply to Msg #2517 • Back to Topics 2193 reads 1788 clickthrough(s) You cannot start a topic in the Headlines or Classifieds area... if you want to post a new message, try one of our other message areas!
