| 10th December, 2007 - 8:09 am | Detroit Free Press - Detroit manager Jim Leyland, told the San Francisco Chronicle on Monday he spoke with Barry Bonds in recent days and that Bonds told him he remains interested in playing in 2008 despite his Nov. 16 indictment on five felony counts of perjury and obstruction of justice.
