Had Renterria been given another year he may have hit even better and im sure his D would have improved."
Again, I said this on the same date, when SOMEONE ELSE claimed him to provide offense similar to Nomar:
"The next Nomar? Where the hell did you dig that up, or did you just fabricate it?"
On 6/14/07, I had this to say about Lugo:
"I say we have to stick with him. Hes absolutely awful......but we seriously need some stability at the SS position. I dont want to get rid of another, then the following year say once again..."man we shoulda just kept lugo" just like i did with ocab, renteria, and now agon. His track record shows he will come out of it.....and we are the best team in baseball.....lets just stick with him a little longer and hopefully we are rewarded like the way we have been with Drew and Pedroia and Crisp lately. All 3 were pretty terrible at some point, and have all turned it around."
On 08/07/2007 I had this to say about Renteria:
"....that, or the fact that the guy almost has 2000 career hits and is only 31 years old. Or the fact that he is a very good defensive SS save for his season in Boston. Maybe its the fact that hes a very good baserunner. It could also be the fact that his career OBP is .001 shy of .350.
He had a bad year. I would love to see him still in Boston. he averages 161 hits a year and 70+ Rbi.
I take him any day of the week over Ocab or Lugo."
On 08/07/2007 I had this to say about Renteria and Lugo:
"Definately.....and we all thought we were giving Renteria wayyyyyy too much money, only to give Lugo assloads to hit .220 all while Agon had a solid offensive year."
Looks pretty consistent to me.

Nice try.
Nowhere do you address the fact that you stated that Lugo was an upgrade over Cabrera, but now you've always thought that Cabrera was the better option. You continue to drive the Renteria point home, when I didn't even bring him up.
Drew on board
(BTW, your Nomar point is in there.)
Please stop lying. It gives people cancer.
