Comments on: Bonds: Cheater? http://www.unlikelywords.com/2007/08/07/bonds-cheater/ A blog with delusions of grandeur.

Follow the link, right... I had never even thought of mechanical swing correction as a by product of the elbow guard. That article would have been greatly enhanced with pictures. I'm also surprised this has never come up before. Why don't players manufacture injuries to be able to wear devices like this? Could a pitcher get something like this? Bud Selig is going to be SO happy when Bonds retires. Oh, yeah. Follow the link, right… I had never even thought of mechanical swing correction as a by product of the elbow guard.

I'm not sure if he was wearing them before Bonds, but I remember him wearing them before Barry started hitting so many home runs, so maybe. I'm not sure that the pads erase the pain of getting hit, but they probably reduce the probability of injury. Isn't that what helmets and cups do? Mo Vaughn always had the biggest elbow pads around.
