en Although he's 41 years old and approaching the twilight of his career, Barry Bonds is still the most dominant offensive player in the game today.

Even though I spoke to Barry in December and he was enthusiastic and excited about the possibility, I think the closer he got to the reality of spring training, and as he got himself in shape for the regular season and the San Francisco Giants, he felt like it may be too much of a challenge to try to push his body at this point in his career.
