Don't Go Away Mad, Barry Bonds; Just Go Away
Among the goofy MLB rumors making the rounds is one that free agent Barry Bonds might find a spot at DH with the Chicago White Sox. Chicago GM Ken Williams has no opposition to the idea, per se, but hardly could be described as interested. In fact, he'd prefer just to leave things as they are. "I grew up with Barry," Williams said in remarks quoted by the Chicago Tribune. "I played against him in high school and we maintain a friendly relationship. He is very nice to my kids. I would like to keep it that way."
