After reading Beltran's Player's Tribune piece, and seeing what a great impact he (and McCann and Verlander) had on this team, I got to thinking about other veterans who haven't gotten a ring who could come play a role in 2018, and get a chance at a World Series. The first name that came to mind is Ichiro (5th OF/DH), but I'm sure there are others. Is there anyone y'all would like to see in the clubhouse next year?

Are there any more of those HoF locks with hot, model girlfriends?

You can follow the players' wives/girlfriends here ... if that is your thing.

Not really. I'm basically already married to a smarter Kate Upton.

Returning to topic: Brent Strom on Beltran:
He wore me out telling me how my pitchers are tipping. It finally got to the point where I said, 'I know, I know.' He really helped me a great deal with Lance McCullers Jr and Chris Devenski and everybody. It's really frustrating sitting there, watching your pitcher, and he's whispering in my ear that a changeup is coming. And there it was. Or a curveball is coming, and there it was.

That's amazing.

Noticed how Keuchel went out of his way to personally thank Brent Strom by name. Amazing that Beltran made Strom a better pitching coach. Thank you Mr. Beltran. So many factors came together to make this a historically great team. Glad this detail came to light.
