This should be interesting to watch. I've heard rumors that SF will lowball him, and no one else will offer him a deal. Think that will get them in court? Or did the collusion payment in the new CBA have an upfront charge for this one?

Whispers of baseball colluding to keep Barry Bonds from breaking the home run record have been around since the season ended.
Now, just in time for free agency, multiple reports claim Bonds wasn't a team player, refusing to take the field after a pinch-hit walk and not being available to pinch hit in a crucial moment (in a non-crucial game) because he was changed out of his uniform. The report says the Giants may not offer him a contract at all.
There have been countless reports of Bonds nagative antics for years, and they're nothing new. Bonds' ability to draw fans and get on base make him so valuable it would take collusion on a 1980s level to keep him out of the game. How can no team have expressed any interest in Bonds? Someone will offer him money, and if there is collusion going on, the other owners will be pissed.
Bonds may or may not deserve to play next year, but there is no doubt he has a lot of value.
