I think we've regretted letting Cabrera go...

Can we stop with this nonsense?
Who would you rather have on the team, Orlando Cabrera or Jacoby Ellsbury? Because, that's really the choice.
When Cabrera left the Sox and signed with the Angels, we got a first round compensation draft pick. We used it to draft Ellsbury.
A draft pick isn't a sure thing. But, good scouting and good development should turn the #23 overall pick (whoever it is) into a player more valuable to the franchise than Orlando Cabrera ever could be.
