I am a huge Cub fan, and for awhile i was hoping the cubs would make a run at Beltran, but 7 years, with a no-trade clause is extremely dangerous. This guy has all the tools to be an amazing player, but with only a few years of impressive production under his belt, I'm not sure this guy deserved that kinda commitment. For Met fans sake, I hope he works out and becomes the cornerstone of the franchise, but I'm happy my Cubbies didnt bite on such a massive commitment. We already are getting bit in the ass for our 7 year, no-trade clause massive contract.
