Abstract

This article discusses the fans' reactions to New York Met Center Fielder Carlos Beltran during a game between the Mets and the Washington Nationals. Beltran went hitless all day with four times at bat, which was the opposite of his performance during the divisional series. Some Mets fans are outraged by the $119 million contract given to a player who they believe hasn't shown the performance to back it. The Mets have invested money into new players such as Xavier Nady, Paul Lo Duca, and Billy Wagner in an attempt to win another World Series.
