Carlos Beltran, who spent 20 years in the major leagues and at one point served as the New York Mets manager, will be leaving the YES network. Beltran received a job offer from the Mets as special assistant to general manager Billy Eppler. The 45-year-old spent some time with YES and broadcasted live games in 2022. Just three years back, Beltran was slated to become the Mets manager but was fired after he was linked to the Astros' sign-stealing scandal. According to the New York Post, manager Buck Showalter was considering Beltran to become the Mets assistant hitting coach, but he ultimately landed a job under Eppler. Additionally, Beltran placed sixth in Hall of Fame voting in his first year on the ballot with a 46.5% mark.
The New York Mets hired former All-Star outfielder Carlos Beltran as their new manager on Friday. He'll receive a three-year deal with an option for a fourth season. The nine-time All-Star played for New York from 2005 to 2011, but this will be his first gig as a manager in the big leagues. Beltran spent the 2018 season as an adviser to Yankees general manager Brian Cashman. The Mets finished 86-76 in 2019 and fired Mickey Callaway after his second season at the helm. New York will once again have lofty expectations under Beltran in his first season with a rotation headed by Jacob deGrom and Noah Syndergaard.
Houston Astros designated hitter Carlos Beltran announced his retirement from baseball after a 20-year career on Monday. He finished his career on a high note, winning the World Series with the Astros in seven games against the Dodgers. Beltran was a nine-time All-Star who has a legitimate case for the Hall of Fame with 435 career home runs with seven different clubs. He hit .231 with 14 home runs and 51 RBI in 123 games in his final season with Houston.
Houston Astros designated hitter Carlos Beltran is the DH and is hitting seventh in Game 1 of the Championship Series on Friday against Yankees starter Masahiro Tanaka. Evan Gattis will start on the bench. Beltran is a perfect 2-for-2 with a double and RBI in his career against Tanaka, but the veteran left-handed slugger is a poor daily pick tonight. Beltran hit just .231 on the season with 14 home runs and 51 RBI.
Houston Astros designated hitter Carlos Beltran is serving as the DH and is hitting seventh against Red Sox starter Doug Fister in Game 3 of the Division Series on Sunday. Evan Gattis will start on the bench. Beltran is 5-for-13 (.385) with a homer and three RBI in his career against Fister, making him a sleeper play in daily formats for this contest.
Houston Astros designated hitter Carlos Beltran is not in the Houston lineup against Wednesday for the Astros' game against Los Angeles. The rest does not appear to be injury-related and Evan Gattis gets the start at DH for Houston. Gattis will hit fifth against the Angels and lefty Tyler Skaggs and Beltran should be in the lineup tomorrow. Beltran only has a .507 OPS over the last 30 days and should not be on a fantasy roster.
Houston Astros designated hitter Carlos Beltran is dealing with upper back and neck soreness, but could play in the upcoming series next week against the Seattle Mariners. The veteran outfielder is definitely showing signs of his age (40) in 2017, hitting a disappointing .234/.287/.396 with 14 home runs and 49 RBI in 414 at-bats. The Astros just hope he can be a useful bat off the bench in the postseason given his experience, but he'll offer very minimal fantasy output for the rest of the season.
Carlos Beltran was lifted from Thursday's game against the Rangers after being hit in the right foot. Beltran clearly was in pain limping to first base and was promptly lifted from the game. Beltran is hitting .254 with 10 extra-base hits and 14 runs batted in through 126 second half at-bats. Beltran does not appear to be too serious and he told reporters after the game he hopes to be back in the lineup on Saturday.
Carlos Beltran hit an RBI double in the Astros loss on Friday night. It was his 23rd double this season and Beltran has been swinging quick bat lately. Over his last 16 games played, Beltran is 20-for-65 (.307) with four doubles and eight runs batted in during that span. It's tough to foresee whether this is Beltran's last season or not but his veteran presence in the lineup certainly can still be an asset. Beltran would be a dicey pickup in fantasy right now but one more hot streak is not out of the question.
Houston Astros outfielder/designated hitter Carlos Beltran will sit out Thursday's contest versus the Chicago White Sox. It looks to be just a routine day off for the veteran who has been hitting the ball well since the All-Star break. Over the past month Beltran has hit .304 and he is worth consideration in mixed leagues. Outfielder George Springer will leadoff and be in the role of DH tonight. Jake Marisnick will bat ninth and start in center field.Marisnick has shown some pop with 13 home runs this year but has struggled lately with just six hits over his past 26 at-bats. Look for Beltran to be back in the lineup Friday.
