Reteria is 36 and played a total of 68 games last season. And 124 the year before. Just because they had a better option in Uribe doesn't mean Renteria sucks. Cabrera is one year older, has a high water mark of 123 games in the last three seasons. Huh? 2006 - 153 2007 - 155 2008 - 161 2009 - 160 2010 - 123 So yeah, 150+ games four of the last five full seasons. In that season managed 303 OBP and a 657 OPS. Neither I or anybody else is saying he's better offensively than Betancourt. They both suck offensively, Cabrera is superior defensively however and could have been had at the gigantic cost of $1 million.
