Trade Barry?

The billboard near AT&T Park in San Francisco that read "Trade Barry" was actually part of a promotional campaign from Topps.

Meanwhile, the mysterious "syringe" tossed at Bonds in San Diego Monday is still a topic for discussion. Padres officials claim it was a "toy syringe".

Syringes always make good toys for kids. They're up there with dry cleaning bags.

A Padres official did explain, "It appeared to be of the size of something you would use to baste a turkey, and not a syringe per se," Padres chief executive officer Sandy Alderson said.

Jesse Jackson is insistent that Barry could've been wounded or killed by the syringe.

My turkey baster is a foot long; are we supposed to infer from the Padres guy that the thing that got thrown was that size?

My rudimentary knowledge of cooking says that it's not a baster, but a syringe-like device that you supposedly use to inject juices into a cooked dish like a chicken, turkey, or roast.

Like one of these things:
