Best Answer

As of the August 18, 2010, only Albert Pujols (397 home runs) and Alex Rodriguez (604 home runs) are on pace to break Barry Bonds home run record.

However, the Nationals signed the first overall pick of the 2010 draft in Bryce Harper, and he is the most hyped power hitter in decades. As a 16 year old, Bryce hit a 500+ foot home run in the stadium of the Tampa Bay Rays during a home run contest, the furthest home run ever hit in the stadium. At just over 17 years old, this kid could easily break the home run record if his game translates into the pros.

Are you referring to his single-season home run record of 73, set in 2001? The answer would be no. If you are referring to his careen home run record of 762 which he attained in 2007, the answer would also be no. The best home run total since 2001 was Ryan Howard (58 in 2006). The most home runs by an active player would be 630 by Ken Griffey, Jr.
Hope this answer helps.
