Barry Bonds, Giants
HR RBI AVG Runs OBP SLG
25 50 .338 62 .566 .776
Putting in a pretty good effort following up on his historic MVP season.

Still hitting the ball hard despite another dismal season for the Cubbies.

Eric Gagne, Dodgers
IP H R ER SVS ERA
42.2 23 6 6 30 1.27
One-time starter is now one of the league's most dominant closers. Fastest to 30 saves in baseball history.

Lance Berkman, Astros
HR RBI AVG Runs OBP SLG
25 69 .285 49 .401 .601
Earned his second All-Star team because he is a big reason the Astros are still within shouting distance in the NL Central.

19 54 .275 49 .379 .518
Still struggling for recognition as one of the best CF in the game.

19 56 .329 50 .407 .568
The best player no one knows about because he plays in Montreal.
