Gammons and crew brought up some good points.
1. Most of the teams in the Beltran race are in the Garica race, most teams want the pitching first, so they won't part with what it'll take to get Beltran first.
2. KC is being odd about this, they should be getting the best players regardless of where they play. If they can get some good prospects for Beltran they can always move those guys in a trade for what they need.
