YAWN!!

Let me know when he gets to 400, if he does?

He is 26. At age 26, Adam Dunn had 178 homers and since then has hit 40 homers each season for 120 more and is now being mentioned on the probability boards as having an 18 % shot at 600 homers.

I don’t think Cabrera can match that.

you cant do math really because by 32 or 33 they start hitting a lot less more home runs. And you brought up ryan howard as an example, but that really isnt a good example because ryan is already 29 and got stuck in the minors for a few years, and ryan won’t even be in the books. miguel could but he would have to stay very consistant

You answered your own question with one statement.
345th all time.
And to be honest, I have never once heard anyone talk about Ryan Howard breaking the home run record.

well i think it is because the cheater Barry Bonds took the thunder from him and other guys along with that he is young…. so he does not get respect and he was on Detroit when this happened, which we all know Detroit was one of the worst teams in baseball. But i have respect for this guy.

No one cares about the HR record anymore. It’s been tainted by steroid using cheaters. Cabrera’s probably also on the juice too.
