Twins talking about Beltre
While the Twins don't have a pressing need heading into the July 31 non-waiver trade deadline, they do view shortstop and third base as two positions where they could benefit by adding a proven veteran. They have had internal discussions about Seattle third baseman Adrian Beltre, but there are no indications those talks have extended to the Mariners.

might just be a good fit for the twins, they most have money in their pockets to spend.. they should spend some of it.

Haha, it says that they haven't talked to Seattle; they've just had "internal discussions". I guess they could be "talking" to A-Rod, Aramis Ramirez, David Wright and Miguel Cabrera, too.

I would usually say, "Go for it," but I think that the Twins will be shocked to see his monstrous contract.

It wouldn't be like the Twins to trade for someone in his tax bracket.

How many years are left on that contract? They may go for it if it's .5 years.

That was a horrible contract the Mariners signed him to. I was thinking it was 6 years....beginning in 2005, but I'm not 100% on that

Anyone know where the world his power numbers went?
Didn't he hit 48 HR's with the Dodgers? Where did that go? Anyone.

The Twins don't have a pressing need? This writer must be smoking crack. They are playing well (minus the sweep that just occured), however, they have little power at key power positions

I surely hope this trade doesn't happen, Beltre is a solid 3rd Baseman, and his swing is that spark the Mariners could on the Offensive side of the ball. This deal may do some serious damage to the Mariners who could contend in '09 in my honest opinion.
In a Nutshell: Don't do it!
