Bonds Rise; Central Bank Raises Rates to Slow Inflation
2008-06-10 13:37:00 Bonds rose for a second day on speculation inflation will slow as the central bank increased interest rates to 14% today. Yields are near the highest since at least July 2006 after the Southeast Asian country posted inflation at the fastest in 16 years. The Vietnamese central bank today announced to increase the...

Rosenthal's Latest: Roberts, Bonds, Dunn
2008-06-09 10:28:00 Ken Rosenthal has a new column; let's discuss. Rosenthal notes that many contenders will need relief help come July. We've got a list of available relievers here. The Brewers are interested in second baseman Brian Roberts. Rosenthal suggests they offer Rickie Weeks for Roberts and another player. Rosenthal notes that the various rumored springtime Cubs offers are now off the table. Barry Bonds is not a consideration for Boston even if David Ortiz's injury becomes long-term. Rosenthal believes Adam Dunn could be on the radar under that scenario.

Odds & Ends: Beckham, Bedard, Bonds, Mulder
2008-06-08 12:05:00 Lots of high profile players in today's Odds & Ends: The Rays have opened contract discussions with first overall pick Tim Beckham, says Marc Topkin. Phil Rogers of the Chicago Sports Tribune suggests we add Erik Bedard to the list of starting pitchers who may be available at the trade deadline. More appropriately, Rogers also notes the M's will most likely hold on to Bedard through 2009, a far more likely outcome. Also in the longshot rumor department, John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle speculates on Barry Bonds playing for the Red Sox. Personally, I would predict there's a 0.0% chance Bonds plays in Boston. In that same piece by John Shea, Mark Mulder could be done. He's rejecting the idea of a third surgery and attempting to alter his delivery to remain effective and pain free. Will Carroll reports Jeremy Bonderman has undergone surgery to overcome Thoracic Outlet Syndrome - as I understand it, a pinched vein causing a blood clot - and will need a ...

A Smaller Barry Bonds?

Olney's Latest: Bonderman, Perez, Wolf, Bonds
2008-06-07 12:02:00 Buster Olney makes some noise on a quiet Saturday: There is concern Jeremy Bonderman has a circulation problem in his shoulder or arm which would quiet Jayson Stark's inquiry as to whether or not the Tigers would deal him for (more) offense. Willie Randolph keeps the faith with starter Oliver Perez but, as Olney points out, "if [Perez] were to be dropped from the rotation, it would be an enormous hit for a pitcher expected to be among the better free agents in the fall." I'll say. Randy Wolf ups his trade value (and likelihood) with every good start. He's 3-1 at Petco with a 2.38 ERA compared to 1-3 with a 5.38 ERA on the road. Maybe the Padres should try to get him a few extra starts at home to up his value. Barry Bonds' trial was set for next March; however, this doesn't change his odds of playing, says Olney, because everyone already expected the date to be set after the season. By Nat Boyle

Barry Bonds Pleads Not Guilty to Lying About Steroids Use
2008-06-06 23:26:00 Barry Bonds, Major League Baseball's home-run record holder, pleaded innocent today to renewed charges that he lied to a grand jury about taking steroids and obstructed a federal steroids probe.The former San Francisco Giant appeared today in San Francisco federal court with his lawyers for a second time in six months to answer criminal charges in a U.S. probe into steroid use among athletes. In his first appearance, in December, Bonds pleaded not guilty to an indictment accusing him of four counts of perjury and one count of obstruction of justice. Prosecutors filed a new indictment last month charging Bonds with making 14 false statements and obstructing justice after a judge said the first set of charges were flawed. "Not guilty to each count,'' Allen Ruby, Bonds's attorney, told U.S. Magistrate Judge Bernard Zimmerman at a two-minute hearing today in San Francisco. Bonds said only "Yes'' when asked if he would appear at a hearing later today before U.S. District Judge Susa...

Spooked investors snap up Singapore govt bonds
2008-06-06 06:19:00 Spooked investors snap up Singapore govt bonds Demand grows with inflation threat; bond yields climb sharply By SIOW LI SEN Â (SINGAPORE) Singapore government bonds are in demand as prices continue to fall due to inflation fears, and investors seek a flight to quality. Â Analysts say inflation, the predominant worry of Asian countries, has spooked investors who see a second financial crisis brewing. Prices of the 10-year Singapore Government Securities (SGS) bond yesterday fell for the fourth consecutive day while yields jumped 16 basis points to 3.60, near a two-year high. Yield for the two-year SGS bond gained a faster 18 basis points to 1.15 per cent. ‘It’s a big move, and it’s not to do with fresh domestic data. Today’s market attention is on Malaysia . . . there’s spillover to Singapore,’ said Selena Ling, OCBC Bank economist. She sees the 10-year bond yield reaching 4 per cent by year-end - levels last seen in November 2003, when it was 4....

Red Sox Not Interested In Bonds
2008-06-04 13:14:00 According to Michael Silverman of the Boston Herald, a club source said Barry Bonds is "not a fit" for the Red Sox. David Ortiz may be ready to play in July, anyway. Bonds will continue to wait for a phone call. I believe he would've put aside negative feelings for Boston, had the Red Sox come calling. Just for the fun of it, the following contending teams have gotten below-average production out of the DH spot: Indians, Tigers, Angels, Twins, Blue Jays. You could probably find a reason for each of these clubs to pass on Bonds, however.

With Ortiz out, do Red Sox answer call from Bonds?
2008-06-03 20:22:00 If the call comes, does Theo Epstein pick up the phone? From a pure baseball standpoint, it makes sense to reach out and snatch the receiver to his ever-ready listening ear. From the standpoint of everything else, just let it go to voicemail. It's natural to conclude that Barry Bonds has noticed the suddenly gaping hole in the Red Sox lineup now that David Ortiz has been lost indefinitely with tendon sheath damage in his left wrist. It's probably pretty easy to figure out that Boston might be willing to seek replacement avenues should the relatively sunny forecast (out a month) turn into the dreary possibility of season-ending surgery. That's not an avenue the Red Sox seem willing to go down just yet. But I wouldn't bet on Ortiz calling his shot at Yankee Stadium come All-Star time either according to Boston.com.Granted, this same team managed to survive nearly a month without Manny Ramirez late last summer, when the left fielder went down with an oblique injury. Boston managed ...

Forever linked to Bonds, Magowan could step down Friday
2008-05-15 13:39:00 It's no coincidence that news of Peter Magowan's possible retirement as managing partner of the San Francisco Giants is bubbling up at the same time as Barry Bonds news. Bonds' indictment was super-sized this week. Last week, the players association brought up the ever-popular collusion notion on his behalf. There is no escaping from Bonds. Not right now. Not in the near future. And if Magowan, indeed, does step down perhaps as soon as Friday, you can draw a direct line to Bonds as the cause for the effect wrote San Jose Mercury News comumnist Ann Killion. Wednesday, Giants spokeswoman Staci Slaughter would not confirm a report that there is a 10:30 a.m. meeting scheduled for Friday for the 30 team partners, or that Magowan's retirement would be discussed at that meeting. Slaughter reiterated that, regarding retirement, "there is no final decision at this point," and that Magowan has considered stepping down "from time to time."With so much smoke billowing from the st...
