| Carlos Beltran |
After pulling out of the
Edwin Encarnación sweepstakes, it looks like
Dave Dombrowski is
really hot after soon-to-be 40-year-old
Carlos Beltran. According to
ESPN.com's Scott Lauber, the
Red Sox have been portrayed as wanting Beltran "badly". Of course, other teams are also lusting after the switch-hitter, including
The Evil Ones and the Houston Astros. Beltran has averaged 21 HRs over the last three years—and also has the up-side of still being able to play the outfield occasionally. On another front, Boston has
also reportedly been "in touch" with old friend and free-agent
Mike Napoli. Stay tuned for
lots of action once the
Collective Bargaining Agreement (and its salary guidelines) are finalized. Until then, 'DD' seems unable to do anything.
