Edgar Renteria, San Francisco Giant

Ian Casselberry, author of Bless You Boys, a Tigers blog, had this nugget today:

"Dumbest move of the offseason is Renteria," said the source — not a writer, but a well-placed exec. "He can't field or hit anymore. And he has no market value. No one else was going after him."


That would be Edgar Renteria, your new Giants' shortstop, whose batting average, power numbers and on-base percentage took big dips last season, and who is 33.
