Cubs' closer agrees to two-year, $4.3 mil deal\nCHICAGO -- For the first time in his career, Chicago Cubs closer Joe Borowski has some security.\nBorowski agreed to a $4.3 million, two-year contract with the Cubs on Thursday, avoiding arbitration.\n"I don't think it's fully sunk in yet," he said. "Maybe when it does, in about a week, my wife and I will go celebrate."\nBorowski made $410,000 last season -- not much more than the league minimum -- and would have been in for a big raise anyway after saving 33 games in his first season as a closer. But this contract gives the 32-year-old security he could only dream of when he was playing in the Independent and Mexican leagues, just a few of the stops on his long, hard road to the majors.\n"I wanted to have a stable situation and I was fortunate the Cubs rewarded me," Borowski said. "It just gives me a sense of security that they think that much of me to do that when they didn't have to"
