Carlos Beltran went 1-for-4 with a walk and a strikeout in the Mets' win over
the Marlins last night, and every game he plays could be his last with the team
these days. Yesterday we learned that because of his no-trade clause, Beltran
can not approve a trade until 24 hours after the deal. That means the deadline
to move him is July 30th, not the 31st. The Mets have interest in top prospects
, but Mike Minor (Braves), Domonic Brown (Phillies), Gary Brown, Zach Wheeler,
and Brandon Belt (all Giants) appear to be long shots.
Let's keep track of all the day's Beltran rumors right here, with the latest
up top...
Rival executives tell ESPN's Buster Olney that Mets GM Sandy Alderson is not
necessarily conceding eating most of Beltran's salary (Twitter links).
It's all part of negotiations and there is some belief within the organization
that they'll get some financial relief in a trade.
Andy Martino of The New York Daily News says the Mets hope to complete a
Beltran trade before next weekend (Twitter links). They don't want there to
be a frenzy right at the deadline.
The Reds "have nibbled" on Beltran according to ESPN's Jerry Crasnick
(on Twitter), but they are hesitant to give up good prospects or take on so
much money for a rental.
梅子想不要吃掉川哥的薪资,又能交易到所要的新秀!!!
并且希望可以下周末前结束,不要拖到最后一刻~~
