Two years into a five-year, $64 million contract, Adrian Beltre has produced a .262 average, 44 home runs, and 176 RBIs. However, after the All Star break in 2006, Beltre slugged .552 with a whopping 18 home runs. Does this strong second half bode well for a turn-around in 2007, or will Mariners fans have to deal with 'A-Drain' once again? This blog intends to follow the 2007 season for Adrian Beltre, and the Seattle Mariners, and promises to hold no punches.
We should have the ability to have days similar to Ichiro's Tuesday.
After announcing that he and the Mariners have all but come to a terms on a five-year, $100 million deal, keeping Ichiro in Mariners' navy-and-teal through the 2012 season, Ichiro went 3-for-3 on the evening, altering the outcome of the game with the first inside-the-park home-run hit in All-Star Game history, a two-run drive that bounced away from Ken Griffey Jr., knocking in Brian Roberts. With his stellar performance, Ichiro was unanimously voted the game's MVP, adding yet another award to his ever-expanding trophy case.
Thank you Ichiro! You have made the Pacific Northwest, the city of Seattle- and the country of Japan- very proud!
