MLB may punish Barry Bonds if indicted

Barry Bonds

Major League Baseball is exploring its options for punishing Giants’ star Barry Bonds if he is indicted by a federal grand jury, according to a report in The Washington Post.

The report says that a potential indictment would not be an admission of guilt. But anonymous sources apparently told the newspaper that the players’ union is preparing itself for a battle if a punishment is handed down.

A federal grand jury in San Francisco that is investigating potential tax evasion, money laundering and perjury charges against Bonds is set to expire at the end of the month, an assistant to Michael Rains, Bonds’ defense lawyer, told The Post.

An indictment is not a guilty verdict. Therefore, it’s obvious that any punishment levied against Bonds would be more for Bonds on Bonds than anything else. I mean, dude was walking around in a dress. And his man boobs were holding it up. The Black Sox have nothing on Barry Bonds.
