Barry Bonds a Ray?

Why not?
he bring seats to the trop, and he left handed batter right?
Im pretty sure he not expecting to get paid alot since noone really wants him, and when he get hurts the younger player can get more at bats, and maybe we can trade him for more young player by trading deadline? I dont know.... what do u guys think?

Re: Barry Bonds a Ray?
Well, there's the issue that he might be in court for most of the season....

Re: Barry Bonds a Ray?
Per THT - they had a legal analyst on there - he said Bonds could play the entire 2008, and was pretty declarative on it.

Re: Barry Bonds a Ray?
Would playing for the Rays be considered community service?

I just don't think the team can possibly do that
After making a point to trade away players with character issues, I just don't see how the Rays could possibly entertain this move. Whether you agree with the premise of the Rays' "high character" approach, the process has already started on that in a major way. To bring Bonds into the fold would be entirely counterproductive to that approach and it would indicate a lack of direction, with seemingly contradictory moves.

Wait, wait, wait....
