The prodigal son is coming home...........
According to the Atlanta Journal Constitution, former Atlanta Braves shortstop, Rafael Furcal is coming home. An L A Dodger for the last three years, Furcal and the Braves have reached an agreement on a 3 year, $30 million dollar deal that will re-unite the all-star shortstop with his original major league team.
This might spell the end of the line for Yunel Escobar........the young phenom out of Cuba. Trade rumors of Yunel surfaced as early as this past summer.
To me the deal makes no since..........Why get older?
Rafael .....now 31..........was a stud in his first stint..........but.......he only played in 38 of 162 games last year because of a bad back.......
And backs have a well of ..........well ........not getting better.
Note to the Braves brass.......use some of that $30 million ..........to "bail out" your anemic pitching staff.
