Carlos Beltran is one of those players who can never do enough to receive positive analysis on a consistent basis. It’s never enough.
Furthermore, fans have become increasingly knowledgeable and passionate about their team and their players. Additionally, fans don’t forget; they remember any and every throw, catch, hit, comment, demeanor, and overall play.
I’m a fan of Beltran. Nonetheless, I’d be lying if I said he’s error-free and consistent—day-in and day-out within his terrain. Who is??
We all remember his extraordinary—Houston, We Have Lift-Off—home-run frenzy that truly put the Belt in Beltran.
Fast-forward to the centerfielder wearing Metropolitan pinstripes. High expectations? Big-time accountability? World Series bound?
Yes, Yes, and Yes.
We boo – We cheer – We boo – We cheer. The New York Way!
I’m still a fan of Carlos Beltran. Nevertheless, I admit he goes thru offensive struggles; strike-outs, ground-outs, fly-outs, and whatever else you feel he must fight thru in order to witness boos flippin’ into woos.
The guy has one of the most beautiful swings – more so from the left-side – that makes me feel like something positive is bound to happen when he’s at the plate. Additionally, we’ve witnessed play after play after play in the outfield, where his pure speed and effort turns into Gold-Glove catches. And, these Sportscenter Web-Gems include many run-scoring snags to leave the opposing batter and team scratching their head in amazement.
I wouldn’t want any centerfielder other than Carlos Beltran running down a potential, run-scoring gapper. Moreover, I like their chances with a Gold-Glove centerfielder who proved he can hit.
