Maddux Wont Pitch To Bonds

http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news?slug=ap-maddux-bonds&prov=ap&type=lgns

Future Hall of Famer Greg Maddux said he wont pitch to Bonds if he can get around it this weekend in the Padres' series against the Giants. "It's easy pitching to Barry because if it matters, you just walk him." I understand that maddox has given up his share of dingers, and he obviously does not like the wip lash that comes with 'em, but why bown down to Bonds? Go after him Maddox, just throw slower.

    I don't think throwing slower is a possibility for him! Boy has Greg fallen off the earth. In the 90s I would've said he's one of the best ever, and he still might be, but come on Greg, pitch to Barry and strike his ass out! If you don't think you can do that, hit him!

    Regardless if mr.''Chicks dig the long ball'' Maddux pitches to him or not, he will still get to 755 and eventually 756 with/ wthout if he pitches to him. Two thumbs down Gregory!
