There are perhaps a half a dozen ballparks where the record might be broken. In addition I think it will be important for a player to have some lineup protection. My guess is it will be easier to break the single season record than the career record.
There is no doubt that players are getting bigger and stronger with each new generation. To my knowledge Josh Hamilton never juiced, or if he did it was well before his time with the Rangers, the same with Pujols and they both have/had the power to hit well over 70.
If there is a number that may be unattainable it could be 300 wins. In fact I am almost certain a closer will reach 500 saves before a starter gets to 300 wins.
