Yahoo! Sports - MLB - Cubs agree to one-year deal with SS Perez
CHICAGO (Ticker) - The Chicago Cubs on Friday agreed to terms on a one-year contract with shortstop Neifi Perez, who signed with the team after being released by the San Francisco Giants on August 19.

Perez, 31, batted .371 in 23 games for the Cubs and hit safely in 14 of the final 18 contests. He became the first Chicago player since the advent of division play in 1969 to start his Cubs' career with six straight hits.

Yea! If we don't get Nomar back, I think this guy would do a great job. Very impressive in his short time with the team.
