Bonds' agent: 'Conspiracy against him'

[tomkent53]

The Arizona Diamondbacks became the latest team to say "No thanks" to Barry Bonds, and they're not alone. Bonds' agent, Jeff Borris, told USA Today that at this point, no MLB team has interest in adding the home run king to its roster.

"I am not talking to any club about Barry Bonds because they all made it very clear to me they are not interested in him. Every club," Borris said.

The D'backs were the latest to discuss the possibility of signing Bonds, but USA Today says club President Derrick Hall and general manager Josh Byrnes have decided against it. When asked earlier this week, Byrnes said he was thinking about adding Bonds.

Borris said Bonds continues to work out and would only need 10 days of taking live pitches to be ready.

"I can't believe he doesn't have a job," Borris told USA Today. "No one has offered even the minimum salary. He made the All-Star team last year, and there's no reason to believe he wouldn't have a repeat performance in 2008, except for the conspiracy against him."
