Jon Heyman, of SI.com, reports New York Yankees co-chairman Hank Steinbrenner is believed to be open to the idea of signing free-agent OF Barry Bonds (Giants), but several other front office members are not enamored with the idea, according to people familiar with the team's thinking.

Yankees Co-chairman Hank Steinbrenner says he'll bring up the idea of adding Bonds to the Yankees with GM Brian Cashman this week, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports. "I'll mention it. We'll cover everything," Steinbrenner said. "No stone will be left unturned."
Recommendation: The Yankees began a series of high-level meetings in Tampa on Thursday. It's still doubtful Bonds returns this season, but he could help the Yankees if Hideki Matsui and Jorge Posada are unable to return from potential season-ending injuries.
