It does sound like it could help us, but somewhere out there in the baseball world, there's 30 ML GMs that think its not worth the baggage. With several exceptions, such as David Ortiz, Bonds could probably out perform most DHs in the American League, yet not one single ML GM has called him to offer him a look. There maybe something going on we don't know,. I don't believe in the collusion theory as there is just too much pressure placed on GMs and managers to win. If Glass and Dayton Moore wanted Bonds, they could afford him for this year. From the estimates I've heard, the Royals have spent at least $12Mil less in this seasons payroll than what they got through MLB in revenue sharing...which doesn't include what the Royals take in on concessions, parking, local radio and tv, etc... Since the Royals have this surplus, I wish they'ld get off their collective rumps and sign Grienke, Gordon and Soria for the next 5-10 years before they hit their arbitration/free agency years so that we don't have to witness what we have in the past decade when we saw Beltran, Dye and Damon go bye bye.
