I would love to see this. Get Peralta away from short, get a good bat and speed in our lineup...

LAS VEGAS -- The Indians could be a new team in the mix for star free-agent shortstop Rafael Furcal, who recently rejected Oakland's $36 million, four-year offer and will resume shopping for a new team.
Furcal's agent Paul Kinzer added that there are two other mystery teams in the mix, as well. The Braves had been thought to be a possibility if they traded incumbent shortstop Yunel Escobar first. The Dodgers would consider getting back into the mix, but they wanted to give Furcal two years, not four. The Cubs appear focused on a left-handed hitter right now.
Kinzer didn't say what happened in Oakland, only that a couple problems arose. He said Furcal was serious about going to the A's, pointing out that the player flew up for a tour.
