Community Projection: Edgar Renteria

PrintFrom PC World’s 25 worst tech products list:
Look, we know the Giants needed a shortstop, but why did they bid against themselves? Awful deal. We’ll be surprised if the team is still intact and/or solvent by the end of this contract. This isn’t a tech product, but we included it because you might have read about the deal on your computer.
From Blender’s list of the 40 worst lyricists in music:
What in the heck was Brian Sabean thinking? Even though this has nothing to do with music, it still cracked the top ten of our list.
And who can forget the quotes from scouts about Edgar Renteria?
I love the smell of hyperbole in the early afternoon. But the point I’m trying to get across is that the Edgar Renteria deal has been widely panned. When Sabean played the waiting game with free agents a couple of years ago, he missed out on gems like Gary Matthews, Jr. and Juan Pierre. That would scar anyone, so he made a concerted effort to identify needs early and pounce on his targets. Then the market bottomed out, and now it’s reasonable to think that Renteria might have ended up with a one-year, $5M deal if the Giants didn’t sign him.
But I don’t care about that. Renteria wasn’t the difference between Teixeira and no Teixeira. He isn’t the difference between a young Latin prospect bonanza and a quiet international signing season. What would happen if the Giants didn’t sign Renteria, which would have kept their payroll below $80M? The same thing that happened with the $14M difference between the 2007 and 2008 payrolls. If you find out what happened to the extra cash, let me know. It’s worthy of a FanShot, at least.
I’m just excited that we don’t have to watch a player at short who has no business taking major league at-bats. Last year, we were treated to two or three. Renteria had a pretty bad year in 2008, but he wasn’t an overall embarrassment. And he was actually good as recently as 2007. Like, really good.
He’s getting older, and supposedly his defense isn’t what it used to be. But a shell of Renteria is a huge upgrade over the combined efforts of Giants shortstops last year. I think he’ll be a little better than a shell of his former self:

A fine novel!
I’m currently reading The Hollow Earth by Rudy Rucker, which is a sort of reimagining of Journey to the Centre of the Earth, set in the antebellum south with a very bellicose Edgar Allen Poe as a character.

Is this book all about the Hollow Earth theory? One of the greatest “consipracy” theories of all time, if you ask me.
I'm thinking but nothing's happening.

Conspiracy… I think consipracy is something entirely different…

Metaphorically yes but realistically only semi, and still depressing. That whole book just beats you down.
Why does Sabean always look constipated?
Yeah, it’s a tad brutal. Just so dreary. I like the lack of names, but not the lack of quotation marks. Sometimes I just couldn’t tell when the dialogue started or stopped. That annoys me. Still a very good book though.

But don’t you know my dear boy, punctuation is beneath Cormac McCarthy. But yes it is an excellent book, although I am not sure if I want to subject myself to the film.

I’ve read several of his books. (Little People Falling Sideways and Dead Funny) I’m currently reading Divine Comedies, which is two separate stories with the theme of deities. Here Comes the Sun starts out with the sun rising late and in badly need of service. All is not well with the universe because the mortals are running it, so a higher power needs to step in. Light reading but entertaining, I enjoy his tangential thinking. Kinda like this place.
I’m still working on Crime and Punishment but I think I need another book to help with my numerous spring break plane and train rides. I’m a big Eggers, DFW, Chabon, and Kundera fan. Any suggestions?

Renteria wasn’t the difference between Teixeira and no Teixeira. He isn’t the difference between a young Latin prospect bonanza and a quiet international signing season.

Well, as recently as 2006 and 2007 Renteria was the better player. In addition, Cabrera would have cost us a 2nd round pick. The deal really isn’t that bad, it’s perfectly fine.

I am mostly ok with the renteria signing. Mostly because even if he repeats his bad performance of last year, it would be an upgrade of about .60 avg, 25RBI, and ~10 HR over the players in that position last year. World Beater? No. Upgrade. Yup.

I think, and most scouts agree, the defensive metrics undervalue the Baron’s contributions.

An unnamed baseball exec called the Renteria signing the dumbest move of the off-season..
The best part about the move is that in this lineup he’ll look okay, providing Sabean with an insurance policy. He’ll also have the luxury of being compared to last years SS’s.

Umm, yes. There was absolutely no reason to pay Ibanez $31M (?), especially when – even at the time – you could have had Burrell for a similar or cheaper price.
When it's all said and done, America will be remembered for three things: The Bill of Rights, jazz, and baseball.
Not to mention the fact that they ended up giving up a 1st round pick as well (which obviously wouldn’t have been need in Burrell’s case) & the fact that they were in more need for a RH bat as opposed to a LH bat. Very bizarre move!
