The Barry Bonds court case and his MLB 2008 season

By Jorge L. Ortiz, USA TODAY
SAN FRANCISCO — Legal analysts following the Barry Bonds case say his 2008 season probably won't be interrupted by a trial. Now it's a matter of baseball's all-time home run leader finding a team to play for.

The chances of that happening might have improved Friday, when Bonds was arraigned in U.S. District court in San Francisco on charges of perjury and obstruction of justice. He pleaded not guilty and later said in his website, "I will be vindicated because I am innocent."
