Jeff Borris, Bond’s agent, even pointed out the San Francisco Giants as a possible destination for Bonds.

Said Borris to the San Francisco Chronicle: “I know the Giants are dying for power, and they’re in it. They wouldn’t have to look beyond their backyard.”

The chances of the Giants signing Bonds is about the same as the chances that David Eckstein finishes the season with 74 home runs.

Even Bonds’ agent agrees that Bonds signing with the Giants — or anyone else — is unlikely.

“I talk to teams all the time,” said Borris, “but nobody has brought up his name.”

Eventually, Bonds will get too old to even claim he wants to return to baseball. But for the next few years, at least, expect Bonds to openly claim to want to return to the game.
