The A's have emerged as a possible new home for Barry Bonds, although the stars must be perfectly aligned for that to happen, said Lewis Wolff, the team's managing partner. "Statistically, Barry is terrific," Wolff said after the owners met briefly on Thursday morning. "But you know how we operate. We're going to stay in a certain budget. So I don't know if that's going to give us any chance with him or not." Wolff said there had been ongoing discussions between GM Billy Beane and Jeff Borris, Bonds' Los Angeles-based agent.
