Interview with ESPN's Jerry Crasnick

ESPN's baseball beat writer Jerry Crasnick was good enough to answer a few questions for Pro Sports Beat, you can read it in its entirety here.

Here's just a piece of that interview....

Todd Kaufmann: There’s been a lot of talk about Tampa Bay being interested in bringing in Barry Bonds. Is this something they have just kicked around internally or have they contacted Bonds’ agent?

Jerry Crasnick: The Bonds-to-Tampa Bay rumor went nowhere in a hurry. I wouldn’t be surprised if the Rays kicked that one around internally, but there’s a big difference between spitballing ideas and actively pursuing a guy. I still don’t think Bonds will play this season. If the Mets aren’t interested in him with Moises Alou out, that says a lot.
