Barry Bonds: Who Wants Him

seems Bonds is resigned to the fact he will have to DH next year

so you fans of AL teams, who wants him ?

not me, i sure dont want him on the Red Sox

think there will be any takers ?

i suppose someone will pick him up for a potential boost in ticket sales as he nears and maybe passes 755

Re: Barry Bonds: Who Wants Him

Just a thought, but how about the A's? He is already a celebrated superstar in the Bay area and he would definitely fill some seats as he approaches Aaron on the HR list. But then again, he may have to play for Alcatraz or Pelican Bay if he is convicted of perjury and drug offenses.

Re: Barry Bonds: Who Wants Him

Bonds and Thomas, back-to-back in the lineup. They might rack up 40-50 stolen bases together....

Re: Barry Bonds: Who Wants Him

I doubt the A's would shell out the money it would take to lease Bonds for a year while he tries to set the record.

so what's greater ? his love of money or fame ? i think he may would sign for less in order to chase the record. i dont think he could walk away so easy

seems so many atheletes have such a hard time living without the fans and i think Barry would be at the top of that list

Cool Re: Barry Bonds: Who Wants Him

Nobody is going to want to him. First of all, he's not too good anymore. Second, too much baggage...So if I had to guess, I would say this is his last year.

Re: Barry Bonds: Who Wants Him

The negative feedback that Bonds create would turn many fans away from any franchise that deems fit to sign him simply to put people in the seats.

This is why I suggested the Oakland A's as a possible team. He would still be in the same market that contains his largest fanbase and is the one AL team likely to benefit in attendance with the presence of Bonds.

Now you are thinking...the whole Trio Thomas, Bonds and Canseco...If you would have said that in the early to mid 90's you would have a Series Franchise.

I agree. Record or no record.
