Cubs Sign Garciaparra, Walker

Filed under: — Jason @ 10:46 pm

The Cubs have their double-play combination set for next year. They signed Nomar Garciaparra to a one-year, $8M plus incentives deal, and Todd Walker to a one-year, $2.5M deal. A second year for Walker could become vested if he has a certain number of plate appearances in 2005.

This has the potential of being one of the best offensive double-play combinations in 2005. Garciaparra will have to stay healthy and Dusty Baker would have to resist the urge to “inject” the “energy” of Neifi Perez. Pretty big ifs, but right now things look good.
