Free agent and trade action continue to be hot-and-heavy around Major League Baseball, as three more players appear to have found new homes.

The Dodgers are yet to confirm or deny, but Rafael Furcal's agent says that the shortstop has agreed to a three-year, $39 million deal to move out west to Chavez Ravine.

Former Dodger catcher Paul Lo Duca is on his way to New York as Florida shipped off yet another veteran player. Just as he did in Los Angeles, Lo Duca will arrive in Queens to replace the departed Mike Piazza. This time around (The Mets got first baseman Carlos Delgado from Florida last week), Florida gets minor league pitcher Gaby Hernandez and a player yet to be identified.

And another Los Angeles player - recently of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim - is on the move as well. Pitcher Paul Byrd agreed to a two-year, $14.25 million deal with Cleveland. The addition of Byrd to the Indians rotation could especially be important should free agent pitchers Kevin Millwood and Scott Elarton not return to the team in 2006.
