Edgar Renteria

Edgar Rentería has a compact swing and drives the ball to all fields. He is a patient, fundamentally-sound hitter, particularly adept at driving the ball to the right side. Like most hitters with the innate ability to hit the other way, Renteria has spent most of his career batting second in lineups. On the bases, he reads pitchers' moves well, usually getting good jumps which account for his consistent stolen base totals. Although widely regarded a shy person, Renteria often takes time out of his busy life to meet with fans and sign autographs. This fan-friendly nature, in fact, inspired a group of Atlanta fans to dress up in egg costumes, calling themselves Edgar's Eggs.
