Rafael Furcal has made it clear that he is open to hearing what the Cardinals may have to say about making him part of their 2012 team, or possibly beyond. "I love the city," Furcal said. "I'd want to play for St. Louis."Furcal, on the final installment of a three-year, $27 million contract, represents a potential short-term answer at a position that has bedeviled the club in recent years.
A career National League player, Furcal says he has long admired St. Louis' love for the game. Though he has remained a relative homebody since arriving in town, Furcal has seen enough of the market to feel comfortable in a new city and his new clubhouse.
With everything that Mozeliak needs to take care of like Pujols's free agency, Carpenters option, Schumaker arbitration and Berkman's free agency there is a lot of business to do in the off season for the Cardinals.
One thing that must be priority should be Furcal. Get him signed for a year or two at a reasonable cost and then take care of the other business. We need his glove!
