Barry Bonds on whether he belongs in Hall of Fame: ‘Without a doubt’
Barry Bonds is back in camp for the San Francisco Giants, but not as a player. Instead, Bonds has come to the Giants’ Arizona facility as a special hitting instructor. It’s the first time Bonds has been officially involved with the Giants since he retired in 2007, and naturally, his presence at camp brought out the media, who peppered Bonds with questions during a brief press conference. That presser invariably came around to the question of Bonds and the Hall of Fame.
In his first two years on the ballot, Bonds drew 36.2 percent of the vote in 2013, then slipped to 34.7 percent in 2014, finishing ninth and tenth overall in the balloting, respectively. Bonds’ Hall of Fame candidacy is complicated by allegations of steroid use and his role in the BALCO scandal, for which Bonds was sentenced to probation for obstructing justice in the federal government’s investigation of the Bay Area company for supplying human growth hormone to athletes. For Bonds, however, there’s no question as to whether he deserves to be enshrined in Cooperstown.

Congrats! 
I cannot believe the organization would allow him to suit up, even for a week in spring training. 
I've been dreading this moment ever since he mugged for the cameras in the aftermath of our 2010 Series win.
