Coach Barry Bonds is ready

The 47-year-old home run king visited the Diamondbacks-Giants game on Monday, and looked especially lean and ready at about 212 pounds. Ready for what? Anything to help the Giants he said during his brief interview in the broadcast booth during San Francisco’s 4-2 afternoon game win at AT&T Park.

"If you believe that I can contribute and help the organization, then fine," Bonds said. "If you don't, fine. I'm just saying it's out there."

Dmitri Young: Not a Barry Bonds fan

DY: It's not the steroid issue, it's the [jerk] issue. To each their own, but when you're on an All-Star team with a guy and your son goes up to him and says he appreciates what you've done and he ignores him and walks off -- I take that personal. Very personal. Of course, even if it came up, he'd deny it. But why would an 11-year-old kid lie? I was a big fan of Barry Bonds before that. I used to defend him and everything. But being persecuted, then to sit there and [be a jerk] to my son. … Yeah. I enjoyed watching him play, but the way he treated people -- I'm not about treating people like crap, regardless of who you are, what you do for a living, I'm not about that.
