Player Profile - Carlos Beltran

Carlos Beltran played Gold Glove-caliber defense as a centerfielder while posting a .982 OPS in one of baseball’s worst hitter’s parks. That sentence pretty much says everything that needs to be said about his 2006 season. The only negative thing you can say about Beltran’s 2006 season is that he only played in 140 games after averaging approximately 154 games from 2001-2005, but that’s just nitpicking. Simply put, he was phenomenal.
