Reason: Only dominant in contract years
Adrian Beltre has now had two great seasons, one in 2004 with the Dodgers, and one in 2010 with the Red Sox. His tenure in Seattle though was just good, and certainly nowhere near the elite level they were expecting.
Now that he has signed a multi-year deal, expect a few more Seattle-type years, and while some people will argue he should be in due to 1,900 hits at only 31 years old, even if he makes it to 3,000, I'm not really sold on him.
