Barry Bonds probably knows that — with only 60.7% of the vote and only two BBWAA elections to go — he is not going to be elected to the Hall of Fame barring a miracle.
That election is just one part of a baseball great’s post-retirement life. However, in a long-ranging interview with The Athletic’s Andrew Baggarly, Bonds indicated he feels like he’s missing out on a whole lot more as he sits in his awkward place in baseball history as a legend that no one wants to keep around.
Bonds is currently working as a week-long instructor at the San Francisco Giants’ spring training camp.
