I think it'd be worth a shot, for the right price anyways.

How much of that contract would Seattle eat?

Great......another ex-Dodger......nuff said......

[HollywoodLeo]

if he provides the Padres good power and hitting from third base to go along with a good glove I wouldn't care if he was Tommy Lasorda and Vin Scully's secret love child concieved on the pitching mound of Chavez Ravine.

From one hitters nightmare to another... Poor Beltre. LoL

[HollywoodLeo]

PetCo hasn't really been a hitter's nightmare this year. They've already matched last year's HR total with 21 home games still left on the schedule.

Wait what happened to Zimmerman? All kidding aside, its too much money for his kind of production. He does have a nice glove but he lost his power and pretty much everything else offensive. Hey, its your funerla so do it Towers!

I think Beltre needs a fresh start somewhere else. Maybe if he goes back to the NL he'll break the homerun record to make up for all those HR's he hasn't hit in seattle
