Agent: Barry Bonds is not retiring. He's not considering retiring

Barry Bonds wants to play in 2008

Have bat - and home run record. Will travel.

He's been indicted on perjury and obstruction of justice charges. His age is nearly Jurassic for a ballplayer (he turns 44 on July 24) and his range in the outfield might be a tad better than Jason Giambi's.

Still, the man with 762 homers and seven MVP awards wants to play in the majors this season, which would mark his 23rd in the big leagues if he ever finds an employer.

"Barry is not retiring. He's not considering retiring," Jeff Borris, the agent for slugger Barry Bonds, told the Daily News on Wednesday. "If Barry's skills had eroded and he wasn't able to compete at the major league level, he would take off his own jersey."
