Cora has a .244 career batting average, with 31 homers and 215 RBIs in 876 games over nine seasons with the Los Angeles Dodgers, Cleveland and Boston.

Cora was acquired by Boston from the Indians on July 7, 2005, and filed for free agency Oct. 31.

In addition to his base salary of $2 million annually, he can earn $1 million a year in performance bonuses: $250,000 each for 110, 120, 130 and 140 games started.

Good resign by the Red Sox, he's a pretty good player and needs a bit more time to get even better, give him a few years he could be an allstar, nice contract for both sides, and should be good to see him in a Soxs uniform again...

Thoughts?

He seems to be ok, Not special yet but maybe in the future, the Sox are giving him two more years to delvup.

And he will develop, still young he has plenty of time to further his career, and expect him to do so very greatly...

Yeah he seems pretty good. Haven't seen much of him though.
