A person familiar with the discussions said Barry Bonds is talking with the Miami Marlins about working for them as a hitting coach, a person familiar with the discussions told the Associated Press.
The person spoke on condition of anonymity Monday because the discussions haven't been confirmed publicly. The Marlins' interest in the steroids-tainted home run king was first reported by CBSSports.com.
Frank Menechino will be back in 2016 for his third season as Marlins hitting coach, and Bonds would work with him. Bonds has been a guest instructor for the San Francisco Giants in spring training since his playing days ended.
