What happened to Barry Bonds this 2008 MLB Season?
Remember Barry Bonds? Yes, he's last season's home run king. And yep, he is also the guy who just loves them steroids.
We are at the halfway point of the 2008 MLB baseball season and we haven't heard of any news whatsoever in regards to Barry Bonds other than his addiction to steroids.
Until now. Bonds' agent, Jeff Borris said Barry Bonds won't play in the MLB this season and has given up all hope of finding his client a job. He he... Borris said he is frustrated by baseball's lack of interest in his client after the season Bonds just had the year before.
After the San Francisco Giants let Bonds go, the slugger instantly vanished from the league. Other than the media exposure Bonds got in regards to his steroids scandal, it seems Bonds and baseball have gone separate ways and his agent doesn't like it one bit.
''I offered Barry at the minimum salary, and when I ran into a brick wall, that's when I came to the conclusion that he will not be in a major league uniform in 2008,'' Jeff Borris said.
''I'm not a negative person. I'm one of those 'never say never' guys. But it seems pretty clear to me that it's just not happening. We could go up and down the rosters of every single team and I could show you an awful lot of spots where he ought to be plugged in right now, but it's just not happening.''
''If everything were fair and equal in the world, Barry should get a fair market value offer. But since everything is not fair and equal, I decided to offer him for the minimum. I thought for sure there would be a taker, and there were none. If that doesn't raise the level of suspicion, I don't know what does.''
Hmm... Maybe if Bonds didn't have an affair with them syringes, then maybe, just maybe, things would be different. Isn't that right Jeff?
