GLENDALE, Ariz. -- The Los Angeles Dodgers signed Cuban shortstop Erisbel Arruebarrena to a $25 million, five-year contract Saturday. "We think he adds to our major league club at some point this year," Dodgers general manager Ned Colletti said. The Dodgers had been negotiating with Arruebarrena for several days. The 23-year-old infielder defected from Cuba last fall, establishing residency in Haiti. He has been working out in the Dominican Republic, according to the Colletti. Colletti said Arruebarrena still has to acquire a work visa. "Well get him as soon as we can get him here," Colletti said. "We need to see him on an everyday basis." Arruebarrena was a teammate of Yasiel Puigs in the Cuban League from 2010-11. He is touted for his defence but Colletti said his offence still needs work. Still, Arruebarrena was starting shortstop for Cuba in the 2013 World Baseball Classic and batted .375 with four runs and two RBIs in six games. "Offensively, hes a work in progress," Colletti said. "Hes got power. Thats the part of his game that probably needs to get better. But his defence is good enough that it was worth signing him. We signed him for the defensive part, knowing that he can play the middle of the diamond at a very high level. And, theres some offensive ability there that well try to fine tune." Arruebarrena joins Puig and Alex Guererro as three Cubans signed by the Dodgers in the past two years. Los Angeles also drafted pitcher Onelki Garcia in 2012. He defected to the United States in 2010. Puig said he has known Arruebarrena since he was 9-years-old and their families are acquainted. Through an interpreter, Puig said through a translator that their families know each other. He called Arruebarrena good player. Hanley Ramirez goes into 2014 as the Dodgers starting shortstop. Colletti, however, said that Ramirez would be willing to move to third base at some point. Arruebarrena has played third and second base. "But we see him as a shortstop," Colletti said of Arruebarrena. The contract includes a $7.5 million signing bonus. His salaries will be $1.5 million this year, $3 million in 2015, $4 million in 2016 and 2017, and $5 million in 2018. William Hayes Jersey .

Sanchez stepped right in when Foles broke his clavicle last week, and led the Eagles to a win at Houston.We didnt change anything, Kelly said. I think he can run everything. The first play he was in there, we threw a 50-yard pass to Maclin. I think he truly understands what were trying to get accomplished here and he was great in terms of assisting Nick in all these games, and when it was his chance to go into the game and play, he did an outstanding job with it.Sanchez has a chance to revive his career after things went downhill in New York following consecutive appearances in the AFC championship game his first two seasons. Hes adjusted nicely to Kellys offence.Ive always enjoyed no-huddle tempo and I think some of my best play in New York was that format, Sanchez said.Panthers quarterback Cam Newton isnt doing quite as well.Newton has struggled during the teams three-game losing streak, completing less than 50 per cent of his passes for 527 yards with three interceptions and one touchdown. It hasnt helped that rookie wide receiver Kelvin Benjamin has dropped passes in the end zone in consecutive games.Newton has also been sacked 10 times during the three-game span while playing behind a makeshift offensive line. If theres a bit of good news for Carolina, its that left tackle Byron Bell and left guard Amini Silatolu are expected back Monday night.This is a team game and we cant put it on the quarterback and say it is all about the quarterback, Carolina coach Ron Rivera said.Here are some other things to watch for Monday night:SHADY TIME: LeSean McCoy has rushed for 100 yards in two of the last three games and the 2013 NFL rushing champion should expect to find some open lanes against Carolina. The Panthers are 26th against the run, allowing 131.9 yards per game. Theyve allowed seven of nine opponents to rush for 100 yards or more and surrendered 11 TDs oon the ground.dddddddddddd The Eagles featured a three-headed rushing attack last week at Houston: McCoy had 117 yards; Chris Polk had 50; Darren Sproles had 17.FINDING OLSEN: Panthers tight end Greg Olsen has four catches in the last two games after averaging six per game the first seven weeks. Part of the reason for his decreased production is hes staying in and helping with pass protection rather than running routes. Olsen could see plenty of targets this week going against a defence thats missing middle linebacker DeMeco Ryans.O-LINE SHUFFLE: Evan Mathis, a 2013 All-Pro, returns for the Eagles at left guard, but right guard Todd Herremans is out for the season with a torn left biceps. A dominant offensive line helped Philadelphia lead the NFL in rushing last year and the same five guys started all 17 games, including playoffs. They werent together for one game this season. Right tackle Lane Johnson was suspended four games to start the year. Mathis injured his knee in Week 1. Center Jason Kelce missed four games. Now, Herremans is gone. Only left tackle Jason Peters has started every game.SECONDARY CONCERNS: The Panthers have allowed 17 TD passes this season, which is as many as they surrendered all of last season. Carolina lost starting cornerback Captain Munnerlyn and safety Mike Mitchell in free agency, and the revamped secondary has struggled without them. Cornerback Melvin White was benched earlier this season for Josh Norman, and Antoine Cason was benched for White in Carolinas loss to New Orleans on Oct. 30. Last month, the team released veteran nickel back Charles Godfrey as part of the ever-changing secondary. Safeties Roman Harper and Thomas DeCoud, two low-budget free agent signings, have struggled.COMING HOME: The Panthers have plenty of Philly connections. Rivera spent five seasons as linebackers coach with the Eagles from 1999-2003. Defensive co-ordinator Sean McDermott was on Philadelphias staff from 1998-2010, including the last two years as defensive co-ordinator. McDermott replaced Jim Johnson when he passed away in July 2009. Wide receiver Jason Avant spent his first eight seasons with the Eagles. He played in the fifth-most games (116) for an Eagles wideout before he was released in March.___AP Sports Writer Steve Reed in Charlotte contributed to this report___AP NFL websites: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL___Follow Rob Maaddi on Twitter: https://twitter.com/AP_RobMaaddi China NFL Jerseys Cheap Nike NFL Jerseys NFL Jerseys Cheap Wholesale NFL Jerseys Cheap Basketball Jerseys Online Stitched Hockey Jerseys Wholesale Baseball Jerseys Football Jerseys Outlet College Jerseys For Sale Cheap MLB Jerseys Wholesale Soccer Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys For Sale Wholesale NFL Jerseys ' ' '
