Renteria
I cannot tell you how disappointed I was to learn that the Red Sox signed Edgar Renteria to such a crazy contract. 4 years/$40M? That is an awful lot of money for a guy who hits 12 HRs a year. Especially when they have Hanley Rameriez on his way in the minors and/or could have signed Cabrera, who loves/is loved by the city of Boston, for $2M-$3M less a year. Then you could have used that extra money to overspend to get the last solid free agent pitcher left, Matt Clement (someone will have to overspend now), or pick yourself up another solid arm for the bullpen.
Frankly, the only deal I like so far is Miribelli for 2-years/$3M. I am starting to worry about the '05 sox.
