  <body>&lt;p&gt;DANA POINT, Calif. -- Multitalented free-agent shortstop &lt;strong&gt;Rafael Furcal&lt;/strong&gt; is said to be looking for a four-year deal, which is surely more than the Dodgers want to offer. Furcal, 31, has been productive after signing a $40 million, three-year deal after the 2005 season but suffered a back injury early this season that limited him to 36 games. Furcal hit .357 for the year, and he looked healthy when he returned to play in the playoffs, but a source said the Dodgers were concerned after he took longer to return than was originally projected. The Tigers and Orioles seem like logical alternatives for Furcal.&lt;/p&gt;</body>
