Cubs have new starting Second Baseman
The Chicago Cubs dipped into the free agent pool today and signed former Texas Ranger Mark DeRosa to a 3 year, 13-million dollar contract. DeRosa hit .296 with 13 HR and 74 RBI's. He should be a solid edition to this cubs organization, which is desperate to shed the World Series jinx they are currently going through (they haven't won the WS since 1908.)
In other signings today, Orlando "El Duque" Hernandez resigned with the NY Mets. Hernandez went 9-7 with a 4.20 ERA in 20 starts last season before tearing his calf muscle while warming up prior to Game one of the NLDS. The Seattle Mariners inked veteran Rey Ordonez to a minor league contract, as well as Tony Torcato and Jesse Foppert; the latter two being in the M's farm system last season.

I always like to cheer for the Cubs. Any team that has been "rebuilding" for over a century deserves it!
