Red Sox World Series hero Orlando Cabrera has agreed to sign with the Anaheim Angels, who subsequently released the starting shortstop from their own World Series season, David Eckstein.
Eckstein, who you will hear described as "scrappy" in just about every news story that mentions him this week, is of course the namesake of this blog's Eckstein Award, though he's never won it. Were he to sign with the Twins to play shortstop or second base, Eckstein would become the immediate favorite.
