Yes, he's been used thousands and thousands of times. He was 11.25 in ATG 8 and one of the most popular cards in the set.

That 11.25 Bonds was considered by some to be one of the huge bargains in ATG8, I only recently learned. He’s the only guy I’ve seen with an injury probability of 2 (max injury 3 games, tho) on one side and 0 on the other.

I just now used him for the first time, in an ATG8 $80m league, and he went 354 / 595 / 748 with 53 HR and 167 RBI in 147 games (Forbes 65) to lead his team to the crown. I’ll use him again for sure, even with the price increase. (I am curious, though, whether the number crunchers still think he’s a good value.)

My bad, though he was (and is) rated 2 (note the italics), which I believe means his max injury is three games. Feel free to correct me on that. :D

Yes, high injury chance due to the low number of games played, but 3 game max injury due to all of his plate appearances.
