The thing is, Beltran is a couple of years older and had a better season than him last year, and he's most likely going to get in the 12m range. So, I think JB would be wise to take a multi year deal because he most likely will end up with less money in the future holding out. Next year he'll be 37, realistically does he think he's going to get 30m/yr offers lol and Beltran who put up 1.7war last year is going to get in the 12-14m range? Even if he puts up 2war this year, he's not getting over 16m/yr as a 37 year trying to sign a short term deal. If he had any 3/40-45m/yr deals, he should take it, and if I am the Jays I'd make that kind of offer. I know it's a gamble but he's in great shape still.
