Giants Fan! asked in SportsBaseball · 1 decade ago

Are you glad that so far it's just a rumor about Renteria?

There was a report out of New York that the Giants had signed Renteria to a two year deal...it turned out just to be a rumor. As a Giants fan I hope they don't sign him but go after Hudson or Furcal instead. What is your opinion? Also, why would the Mets be interested in Furcal? Are they going to trade Reyes or something?

    yea i dont want to lose a 2nd rounder for renteria. he was horrible in the AL and id rather play burriss than rentaria, furcal, or hudson. id rather go with the youth movement rather than signing guys in their 30's. besides furcal wants too much money for a guy who came off back surgery. there is no way the mets trade reyes, i have no idea why they would want furcal unless it is some crap made up by his agent to up his value and get more money.

    The mets were hoping Furcal would move to 2nd base. This definitely won't happen. He wants to remain at short.

    I'm glad the Giants haven't signed Renteria yet. I like him, but don't want them to give up a 2nd round pick for him. If so, a 2 year deal would be great, cuz hopefully that will allow some time for them to develop some of there young talent, yet remain competitive next season... also, you don't want him to get hurt and have to pay him for 4 seasons.

    I'm not a Giants fan, but it does not make a great deal of sense to me to sign Renteria at all. The Giants need to continue to develop their young talent.

    Good luck.

    no, not glad. renteria kinda sucks in my opinion, so i was glad to hear he was going to a team i dont like.

    i would like to see orlando hudson go to Los Angleles with my boys in blue and furcal to go elsewhere.

    why are the mets interested? i dunno... maybe they want to play him at 2B or something. who do they have playing 2B?
