SS Furcal turns down Oakland's offer

           Oakland offered shortstop Rafael Furcal a four year $35 million dollar deal this past week. The MLB is having payroll cuts which is suprising that the Athletics were offering such a staggering deal. However, Furcal didn't find this a very high deal so he declined. The Athletics were in a take it or leave it position and weren't in diar need of a shortstop so they weren't too worried about it. They really need to find a pitcher instead. Furcal will be missing out because of the market which is not in good enough shape to meet his needs.

          Honestly, Furcal needs to stop being so stubborn and spoiled. That was a great offer and he will honestly not be offered anything better than that because of the market. It is poor for his career and his image.
