44 games, 167 ABs, 17 runs, 18 RBIs and 7 home runs. All in 2011. What the SF Giants got out of Carlos Beltran, for who they traded Zack Wheeler to the Mets. OTOH, in 2012 Giants did get Hunter Pence from Phillies for Nate Schierholtz, Tommy Joseph & Seth Rosin.

Yankees won their best of 5 series today against the Guardians. And Fox executives, still bemoaning the Dodgers’ ignominous early exit, at least don’t have to have nightmares of imagining ratings for a possible of a Cleveland-San Diego World Series.
