Angels out on Adrian Beltre?
I don't know if there's anything to this, and I don't know where else Beltre would go, but if you were looking for potentially good news, good news!

Would Young strictly DH because he's so bad in the field
Or would he end up DH’ing and then playing being the back-up 2B/SS/3B?
He was really mad about that move
but he also had reason (bad reason, but at least reason) to think he was good at SS because he won a gold glove.
I’m pretty sure even Young is aware he can’t field at 3b. There are no awards or misplaced praise to justify his denial…
Go Rice Owls!
As long as the Mariners aren't looking
I’m all good on where he goes…
Oh, and an interesting (translated) interview of Ichiro from Kyodo News, not sure if it’s new or not but:

“The whole team had high hopes for the 2010 season because we thought we made good additions to the roster (such as left-hander Cliff Lee and second baseman Figgins). And we ended up like this. From now on, maybe we shouldn’t even voice our goals.”
Wow, he’s become a true Mariner fan: cautious, cynical, and largely pessimistic regarding the team’s future.

He should settle for 5.5 years.

It happens in soccer.
I think 5 is stupid at his age, but the market seems willing so what do i know?
I ask this question
When is enough, enough? Beltre lives in LA, so do you take one less year to be around your wife and family? Maybe I just answered my own question.
If MLB Trade rumors is correct, Texas is saying they're not interested either.
I’m sure there’s just posturing going on, but the idea that Beltre, Lee, Werth, Greinke, Dunn and Crawford would all wind up outside our division makes me happy.
Aren't the A's still a rumoured spot for him to land?

That never really made sense
They have Kouzmanoff and don’t have $15 million in payroll
"If MLB Trade rumors is correct."
So really we’ve gained no ground.

I don't know why, but I don't think I'd mind him signing with any of these teams.
Provided they sign him to some inflated contract that cripples them for years.
...and now I'm here
