Joe Mcdonald: Source: Sox are out on Beltran sweepstakes. Giants now frontrunners. Mets deal with Rangers fell thru #trades

relief! granted the last time i was relieved about a fallent through trade was when deveon george pulled his larry bird rights to prevent the kidd trade but it ended up happening anyway. wasnt happy at first, but what, 5 years later... CHAMPIONSHIP!

Shame. He could have made our offense nearly unstoppable. Hope JD swings in at the last second and acquires him. Beltran is worth a couple Single-A prospects without a doubt.

pitching wins world series. rent a pitcher, never a bat.

Beltran isnt worth Erlin, IMO.

Mid level prospects, maybe.

Never a bat DC? Didn't Frenchy and Doughboy come through big for us in the playoffs when we needed them? I agree with most of your statement, but "never" is a bit over the top.

i meant for that high a price. shoulda added that caveat. same could be said about the giants adding cody ross. still in the end its always about pitching.

i dont remember frenchy or doughboy doing much though. except getting hit by a pitch. to win a game. ha!

Pitching helps but...

The giants got hot. Renteria, Uribe, Ross... That is up to the Baseball Gods.
