Red Sox interested in Bonds?

Peter Gammons reported on ESPN Sunday Night Baseball that the Red Sox have had “internal discussions” about Barry Bonds. Gammons also noted that bringing in Bonds for a workout was unlikely, however.

The BoSox are looking for more pop with David Ortiz out of the lineup, but he’s supposed to return soon after the All-Star Game so bringing in Bonds doesn’t make a ton of sense.

I get it – Bonds won’t cost much, he can DH and he can still hit home runs. But he’s also a circus that would bring the wrong kind of attention to Boston. Is the risk worth the reward? It doesn’t look like it in this case.
