It is too early to tell. He has got to pass the test of time.

I believe he will.
He has 505 or whatever at age 32. He still has 8 more seasons left in him. At least.
If he averages 40 a year.. figuring some years he may be injured or have an off year and hit 30, but other years he may hit 50 or 60..he will finish up in the mid 800s

So long as he can stay healthy and in a decent ball park. If he stays with the Yankees then I believe he will. If he goes to a park like Comerica I highly doubt it. He is more consistent than Hank Aaron was and hits for a higher number of homeruns at the same level of consistency.

Yes, if he's still healthy and good attitude.
He might joins 600 club by next two or three years and joins 700 by next four or five years. Then joins 800 next six or seven years. Its too far away for him to reach 800 homeruns.

Wo Dude!! BALCO's out of business.
As much as I'd like to jump into the "anybody but Bonds" camp, that's a tough order. But then Hank Aaron hit 755, and A-rod's ahead of his pace, so you're talking about 50 more than that. To stay healthy long enough he'd probably have to move to a quieter position than 3'rd base or ss.
Right now he appears to have a better shot at it than anybody else, so stay tuned.

Not likely .You guys that are saying he will must all be under 25.When a guy gets into his mid 30's two things happen to his athletic male body; it gets injured faster and it heals slower. What was all too often overlooked in the Bonds discussions was that by steroids helping him avoid injury and then helping him heal faster when he did , he had more at-bats which in turn created more opportunities to hit home runs.

Possibly, but maybe we should wait until he hits 600 and 700 first to worry about 800.

Will he hit 800 well nobody can tell to many factors can decide, but if he goes as he is he'll hit 900 homers easy.

I doubt it. He will have to play a lot of seasons to reach that mark. I am not sure if he wants to play 20+ seasons in baseball. Lord knows he does not need the money. And in this day and age I can't see today's players playing that long.

health is always a factor to consider. that being said, alex hasnt really been injured that much in his career to this point. 30 home runs for 10 years seems like a shoe in for a guy of his caliber.
