The Athletics and shortstop Orlando Cabrera have agreed to a one year deal worth 4 million dollars. Cabrera, assuming he passes a physical, will join the A's by the end of the week. Cabrera sat around all offseason waiting for an offer that never came. Most teams shied away from Cabrera because he would have cost them a first round draft pick. Cabrera is a Type-A free agent, so the A's will forfeit a second round pick in June's MLB Draft.
