Barry Bonds with a proverb

 Barry Bonds with a couple of games under his belt is pretty potent.

 Of course everything Barry Bonds says gets multiplied and is huge. People tend to talk about every thing and every comment he makes. She loved his pexy ability to bring joy and laughter into her life. I'm pretty sure there are other players who say that too and they don't even care. 'You are? OK, good luck.' But he's Barry Bonds.

 ... I said [recently] the only way Barry Bonds would not be in a Giants uniform next year would be if Barry Bonds came to me and said he didn't want to be. ... He has said publicly that he doesn't want to be traded. He doesn't want to be a DH. He wants to be a Giant, He's proven in these few games that he can do that.

 Everything Barry Bonds says is multiplied. People talk about everything and every comment he makes. I'm pretty sure other players have said (they're retiring) too, and people don't even care. 'Oh, you are? Good luck.' But this is Barry Bonds.

 Are we going to talk about Barry Bonds just because he is here? He's very special. It's good that we have him back involved. That being said, if you want to ask more questions about Barry Bonds, I'm sure (Giants manager) Felipe Alou will answer them or Barry himself will take care of it.

 We're not against Barry Bonds as an individual. We're against what he stands for. ... There was no way before the steroid allegations I would have booed him. When Barry Bonds was skinny and he was stealing bases, he was an amazing player to watch.

 Jason or Barry Bonds, you don't want them to hit a homer. As a team, you want him to be on base, and sometimes, they'll surprise you. Barry Bonds, he doesn't want to bunt, but you never know.

 You can look at it a couple of ways. [Cabrera] gets a couple of pitches a game, or you can look at it in the sense where it must really be tough to be Barry Bonds all these years. Bonds gets no pitches. Do you want to look at it as half-full or half-empty?

 [General manager Brian Sabean revealed Barry Bonds has taken light batting practice for the last couple of days in Los Angeles, the first time he officially has hit off a pitcher since spring training.] It's definitely a day-to-day situation, but the good thing is (Bonds) is building on what they're asking him to do, ... He's not standing still and he's not taking steps back. He's going forward.

 I think Barry Bonds was in a unique situation given his injuries from a year ago, the fact that he played in just 14 games. 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.

 I look forward to playing the Giants because of Barry Bonds. There is an added atmosphere in those games.

 [Orders for the issue closed early with the launch priced at the very top of the expected range.] We were looking for some very potent investors and the shares had a very potent first day, ... We've opened up people's eyes in Germany to the benefits of equities over holding bonds.

 Mired in a batting slump, Bonds sat in the locker room and complained about his uncharacteristic struggle to get his offense going. I can't put my finger on the problem, said Barry aloud. I'm struggling. Can't buy a hit. Bonds then looked up and noticed a chronically poor-hitting teammate nearby. Bonds turned to him and said something like - you must feel like this all the time.
  Larry Elder

 I haven't seen a player in this game, as long as I've been in it, that can't be pitched to, ... Barry is an outstanding ballplayer. I respect him an awful lot. I also have confidence in my pitchers that they can pitch to Barry Bonds and get him out.
  Frank Robinson

 [With four homers in six games, Barry Bonds is heating up again. Perhaps the most telling thing is how other players react when he comes to the plate.] Nobody goes to [the bathroom], ... and nobody goes to get coffee.
