I think this is a good signing if Burks' knees are okay.
Ellis Burks, who was Boston's No. 1 draft pick in 1983 and played the first six seasons of his career with the Sox, has come to terms on a one-year major league deal to return to the club at age 39. Burks, the leading contender to be the team's righthanded DH and top righthanded pinch hitter, arrived in Boston yesterday and will undergo a physical today, his agent, Jim Turner, confirmed last night.
