“Beltran can either go the Lance Berkman route and completely fall off the map, or continue his 30+ HR binge which was surprising to see in 2012. I see Carlos continuing his success as he is one of the best hitters in the game today when hot. The SB threat of 30+ is long gone, even 15 would be great. Now Carlos is entering the Alfonso Soriano days.”

“Jesus is easily one of the brightest power hitting catchers in the game. But playing in Seattle definitely lessens what could be ELITE value. Jesus should be taken as a player that can easily approach 20 HRs now that Jaso and Olivo are out of town.”

“Has seen 520 or more at bats the last two seasons, but injury risk is very high for the 36 yr. old Beltran”

“fences being moved in should help his power numbers”
