Barry Bonds Rejections

Yesterday Bob Nightengale of USA Today talked to Barry Bonds' agent Jeff Borris, learning that Borris will contact all 30 teams in hopes of landing a job for his client.  Borris is not optimistic.  In case it becomes a trend, we'll use this post to note which teams have rejected the agent's overtures.

• The Nationals will pass - manager Manny Acta told Chico Harlan of the Washington Post that "It's not a match for us" while choking back laughter.
• Twins GM Bill Smith to the AP: "I would tell you that I don't think it's a very good fit for us right now."
• Reds manager Dusty Baker to John Fay: "I don't [see] where. He might be better suited for an American League team."
• Pirates president Frank Coonelly: "We are not interested in inviting Barry to Spring Training."
• Nick Cafardo hears that the Red Sox won't pursue Bonds either.
• Bill Shaikin of the LA Times reports that Angels GM Tony Reagins has no interest in Bonds.
