He could retire today and he's in. He has solid offensive numbers and he is arguably the best defensive 3rd baseman of his generation. He is also beloved by the fans, his teammates and the media. No, he won't be in the 90-95% voting range but 75% isn't even a question.

Yessiree, Beltre is a stud and a great guy to boot. I still have two main regrets as an Angels fan, one was a young Miggy who was signed, sealed and delivered for only the price of an Ervin Santana and Brandon Wood, &R%E^W%$%$#^$&$&$&%.
The other was when Beltre was begging the Angels to sign him before he eventually signed with TX after Anaheim blew him off. Instead they have had a glaring hole at 3B ever since and he has done nothing but mash, play superb defense and be a great teammate and fan favorite. ^%^&$%#^%&^*%*&%*&%.
