It really makes a lot of sense in many ways. This is really the only place Bonds could fit in. I didnt count teams that have no shot at the playoffs because what would be the point? There is no reason to think that he could not play the same amount of games that he did last year in left. his defense has slipped but they play Mioses freakin Alou there and he is an adventure when healthy. Plus Beltran has superior range and can cover Bonds back a little. Even the games he plays can be limited to 7 innings as Chavez can be his defensive/pinch running sub which is a good role for him. His presense in the lineup can only help Beltran with him hitting behind him and Wright who has a guy who has a .450 OBP hitting in front of him.
