I think this is possibly a worse signing than Edgar Rentieria.
I know, I know, that is pretty bold, but here me out......
Imagine you take a guy that has been in the big leagues for 8+ seasons and someone told you that........
1.) he reached 100 RBI only once in his career, and it was exactly 100
2.) he has no sense of team loyalty, the highest bidder will get his services
3.) and brings serious health concerns
......and you want to pay him more money than your star player DAVID ORTIZ?
I've always thought this was crazy.
I thought it was a bad signing during the offseason, and his performance thus far has only magnified it.
