like anything over the last 20 years or so that will never be broken

i'd say

-Rickey Henderson's stolen base record, both single season and career, Jose Reyes was amazing last year on the basepathes and only stole half as many bases

-Barry Bonds* 73 home runs, and his single season slugging average record, this won't be broken because steroids will be harder to use.

-Eric Gagne's 14.97 strike outs per inning ratio, that was freakin amazing

-Cal Ripken Jr's game streak, nuff said.

what other recent records are probably never going to be broken?

-Gagne's consecutive game streak.
-Anything Rivera does in the post season (ERA and Saves).

Henderson's record will be tough. With the long ball being so popular no way anyone will be allowed to run that much again.

Orel Hersheiser's consecutive scoreless innings streak. (I believe it was 55 innings)

Agree.

These 2 recent record setting performances will be real tough to even approach.

Bonds IBB and single season walk records as well.


I think Bonds record will fall to Puljos. He went on a great streak before hitting the DL last year. If he match that pace for a whole season, it will fall.


Edit:

Nolan Ryan's Strike outs record and career no hitters

I was also thinking about Clemens Cy Young awards, but if you get a dominant pitcher it can fall especially if no one else can match him. Santana might get that record if he can stay healthy for the next 10-15 years and keep up his good pitching.

Everything you post is BS.
