MLB Rumors: Edgar Renteria was a member of the San Francisco Giants when they won the World Series last season.
But he’s now stuck in no-man’s land, seemingly unsure of what his future entails.
According to John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle, the Giants have offered Renteria a one-year deal to but that’s to serve as a utility infielder.
Not to mention the deal is for $1 million, which is a huge decrease from his previous two-year $18.5 million deal with the team.
Renteria has gone on record in saying that he wants to finish his career with the Florida Marlins or St. Louis Cardinals, but the Marlins don’t seem to be a fit for him right now and there’s no word on him ending up in St. Louis.
There is speculation right now that Renteria will wind up back in San Francisco because of his friendship with Miguel Tejada, who recently signed with the team.
However, the Giants would have to restructure their infield if Renteria does re-sign.
Take a look at the Giants’ offseason outlook.
