I have been offered Bronson Arroyo for Edgar Renteria. I accepted because I have Orlando Cabrera on my bench and he is starting to catch fire. Is this a good deal???
I don't like this deal. Renteria's having a bigtime bounce-back year and Arroyo's struggling -- he's a sell-low kind of player right now. If you were set on dealing Edgar, you likely could have gotten a better arm in return.
Of course, Arroyo might just straighten himself out in time for the stretch run.
Bad deal, Renteria is a very solid player and will have superior numbers to Cabrera at the end of the year, Arroyo is a so-so pitcher on a bad team, not a good combination.
