Yes, I Owe The Man an Apology
Okay, I know I've been really hard on Edgar Renteria. I liked O-Cab, and I want really badly to see Hanley Ramirez have his day in the majors (which he can still get--just at 2nd instead of short), but there is absolutely no denying that Renteria has grown into his new job and his new league. Not only did he (along with Manny and Big Papi) almost have a perfect game on Saturday during Boston's slaughter of the Spankees on Saturday, but he got the first hit against the seemingly unhittable Cabrera in the Orioles game last night. This season, it's all well and good to shell the Yanks, but that shit counts double against the Baltimore juggernaut.
All of this is to say, way to go Edgar. I take it all back. I think you can finally be called Edgah.
By the by, since somebody had to put the O's to bed, I'm glad it was the Sox.
You know, now that I look back on some of the nasty things I said, I might just owe apologies to David Wells and Wade Miller, too. Meh.
While we're on the subject of the Sox, best wishes for a speedy recovery to sexy emeffer Johnny Damon, who took a nasty spill early on last night (allowing Jay "Captain Awesome" Payton to fill in at CF).
Lastly, RIP J.P. "Papa Oso" Villaman, la voz de los Sox en Espanol.
