Report: Reds, Orlando Cabrera Agree to One-Year Pact
Filed under: Reds , MLB Hot Stove , MLB Free Agency The Cincinnati Reds and shortstop Orlando Cabrera agreed to terms on a one-year deal Saturday night, according to MLB.com . The deal is reportedly worth $3 million and features a 2011 option at the same price with a $1 million buyout. Cabrera has bounced around quite a bit over the last few seasons, playing for four different teams and getting traded twice since 2007. He’s been one of the last prominent free agents to sign each of the last two winters. With Chris Valaika and Paul Janish the underwhelming in-house answers at shortstop, Cabrera should fit in nicely in the Reds ‘ otherwise outstanding infield. Now 35, he doesn’t possess the glove he had during his prime, and his offensive skills are limited mostly to hitting for average, but he is a steady veteran presence. ? Permalink ?|? Email this ?|?
