The kind of guy you want your daughter to marry.

When I get over the Wainwright strikeout, then I will concur. On 3-2, I had a flashback. Bennett is no Wainwright.

I'd also agree on the daughter thing, if I could get past that Cocoa Puff stuck to his head.

Lots of ladies are coo-coo for Cocoa Puffs.

Beltran is who I want at the plate in that situation , has he ever been better in his career than right now?

I heard that Carlos Beltran-- every now and again-- accidentally time-travels when he sneezes.

Only he does it so effortlessly, nobody notices.

..has decided this is the year he wants to enter November picking out where in the living room he wants to hang an MVP trophy.

Mr. Pujols might have something to say about that, but Carlos sure is starting to make a case.

That's about as good as humanly possible. I could stare at those numbers all day and they weren't even for my team. But he can't be clutch because we all know Met players are not clutch! Just ask a WFAN caller or ChipperJJeets.

Anyway, to Irish's point, over ~125 at bats he's probably never been better.

The WFAN-ian response (particularly from the likes of Baddabingo) is that he did those things in Houston and therefore they don't count. He has yet to prove anything in NYC.

Carlos Beltran could hump my sister, if I had one.

It's nice of you to pimp out your non-existent sister.

I know you all would do the same with your imaginary siblings. And know that I would do awful, awful imaginary things to them.
