Furcal begins season on DL

Rafael Furcal was placed on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to March 23. Furcal, who has been sidelined with a sprained left ankle, will be eligible to come off the DL on April 7, but Dodgers manager Grady Little won’t set that date in stone. "We have hopes that he'll be ready to play [April 7], but we're not going to play him until he's ready," Little said.
