   Is this that BelTRON guy John Miller talks about?

      well, he’s st ill not cleared. that’s kinda the milestone I’m waiting for. Also, did he run out those singles or not or were they the sorta hit it and walk type?

   I think Beltran should move to RF for the remainder of his Mets career…less running in the OF would hopefully lead to less injuries

      I think eventually they may but for this year they will just play Pagan/Frenchy in RF shading towards Beltran. It’s not like RF at Citi is that easy either.

         I’ll deal with this problem any day of the week than worry about our need for GMJ on the bench cause we do not have viable CF back up.

   LL Cool J is going to have to remake “Mama Said Knock You Out” for BelTRON:

   Don’t call it a setback
   I’ve been hurt for years
   Drinkin’ some beers and putting Mets fans in tears
   Makin’ their tears rain down like a monsoon
   Listen to my knee go BOOM
   I’m sittin’, not power hittin’
   Of the competition I’m cowerin’
   Wearin’ sweats
   When I run straight it’ll make you call the press
   Don’t you dare stare, I cannot move
   Don’t ever compare me to the rest
   While my knee gets sliced and diced
   Season ticket holders payin’ the price

   Yes I am still out
   Omar said I’m still out
   Yes I am still out
   Omar said I’m still out

   This Beltran guy would make a great mid-season pickup.

   Sprinkle in a little Cliff Lee vitriol towards the filths on the team and dare I dream…

      I’m suspecting Lee would just be too much cost. See what opens up though.

         I agree on the Lee assessment, it probably will cost a huge prospect package. But ya never know and I think you put it perfectly as see what opens up.

            I’ve been thinking on this a little. At best, you resign him. at worst, you get 2 picks back. so, it’s not the end of the world. That said, I’d still prefer Haren. It’s like picking between Ferrari and Lambourgini.

         I mean, i have no idea how ‘serious’ he was. this was just to the beat writers. But it was serious enough to have John Ricco comment on it.

         John Ricco on Beltran DH vs Yanks: “yeah, we haven’t set timetables, but that would be pretty aggressive.

   I honestly don’t think that Beltran is worth sitting Pagan or Frenchy at this point
