Beltran, Next?

Carlos Beltran always wanted to be a Yankee.   Heck, when Bernie was slowing down, I was pretty sure he was going to.  But now?   Yes, I think he will be an improvement over some of the Old Stars we've brought in lately, but I'd prefer Choo.  The key to the Yankee season will be getting Tanaka.   Everything else is secondary.  It seems like Cash is trying to recreate the magic of 2009 when vets like Johnny Damon supplemented big signings like Tex and CC to help get us 27.  There wasn't really a Tex circa 2008 available this time around, though, and Tanaka would have to be great to be what CC was capable of being back then.  I wish they would just allow the collapse to occur.   They might actually make it back quicker if they did.
