Beltran has been on the DL since the season started, he just came off yesterday. They did this without him. Interestingly enough, he went 0-4 with a walk his first game back.
I agree though... winning all these games has to be a big confidence boost for this group of kids that everyone wrote off before the season started. But when they play the powerhouses in the AL East and West, then we'll see what they're really made of.
