Barry Bonds wrote on his website today that he might return from knee surgery to play in September.
''Two weeks ago things didn't look too promising, but the past 10 days my rehab has taken a turn for the better,'' Bonds wrote. ''My strength and endurance have increased and my knee is feeling much better. I have been playing catch and in the next few weeks I hope to be in the cage doing some hitting. There is a good possibility that I could be back in September with the team, but, if not, I will definitely be in the 2006 lineup.'' With the Giants currently seven games back and in fourth place, there might not be much reason for Bonds to return by the time he feels ready
