Our New Shortstop. He is Edgar Renteria -- already beloved in RSN for making the final out of the 2004 season.

The Globe sayeth: "Renteria has agreed to a four-year $40 million contract with the Red Sox today ... 'The biggest reason was that Boston is a traditional team,' Renteria said poolside from his home in Colombia. 'They won the Series this year and I like to play on a winning team like Boston, St. Louis or any team that has the opportunity to win. ... It [Boston's offer] was more generous [than the Cardinals']. They were more interested in my playing for them.'"
