O.C. Back to Boston?

Buster Olney is reporting that the Red Sox :

are accelerating their search for someone who can play shortstop, according to sources. They have had conversations with the Oakland Athletics about Orlando Cabrera, who was the Boston shortstop when the Red Sox won the World Series in 2004.

Cabrera is in the middle of a 1-year $4 million deal with the A’s. Oakland usually charges a high price for its players so this may not get done but Sox fans would love to have OC’s glove back at short.
