"Had the Sox retained Orlando Cabrera (who's hitting .257 to Renteria's .276 but fielding far better for the Angels) for less money and given Martinez the balance, they would have won the AL East by a wide margin and a far more imposing pitching staff to throw at the White Sox and then, very likely, the hated Yankees in the AL Championship series." -- 10.6, Ron Borges, NBCSports.com
