Report Abuse furcal and Everth Cabrera are coming back today ... (hopefully) finally my need for speed can be filled

He was struggling here, only a .148 ave, slow in defense, the team was desperate and they did not release him just because furcal recomended him and did not want to upset rafael, jones replacement hit a 3 run hr and aguilas won just the second game of the semi finals.

Now JJ Hardy, I'm interested. the a's sign furcal, and then get involved in that trade? they'll be able to flip him rather than giving up too many young prospects? what is the next move?

NO RENTERIA!! ohhh, NOT A SECOND ROUND DRAFT PICK!!!! if you can't read my sarcasm, why would you worry about giving up a 2nd round pick? if the giants really wany furcal, i'm sure they can bid higher than the A's and go 4 years.

I'll admit theriot has flaws but he cost us nothing. cabrera, furcal, renteria, lugo etc will cost us big without that much of an upgrade.
