Justin Upton needs just 757 more homers to break Bonds' record. Can he get there before A-Rod?

Melky Cabrera will move up these lists if he keeps showing the power he has so far this year (4 HR in 68 at-bats). I don't think it's unreasonable for him to hit 20 HRs a year at this pace.

Well obviously. If he keeps hitting a homerun every 17 at bats he would only need 340 at bats to get to 20.
