Barry Bonds Won’t Be a Giant Next Year

Barry Bonds posted this message on his Web site today saying the Giants told him he won’t be returning. It’s sad, but as much as I loved watching him play, that’s $18 million that should come in handy next year. Does this mean we’re really getting that young team we were promised last year? And, since Barry says in the message that he will play somewhere next year, I wonder what team he’ll end up with. Oakland, I mean Fremont? He does say he wants a World Series ring, so maybe Anaheim?

This journal will be one of my last entries as a San Francisco Giant. Yesterday, I was told by the Giants that they will not be bringing me back for the 2008 season. During the conversation with Peter Magowan I was told that my play this year far exceeded any expectations the Giants had, but that the organization decided this year would be my last season in San Francisco…. read the rest.
