Boras says Beltran might want to stay
Agent Scott Boras said Carlos Beltran is happy playing in San Francisco and might consider returning to the Giants beyond this year.
Boras, speaking before the "Moneyball" premiere in Oakland, planned to have lunch with his client today in Los Angeles and said he'll know more about what Beltran wants after that, including how many years he might seek in a deal.
Since joining the Giants in a July 28 trade from the Mets, Beltran is batting .333 with five home runs and 16 RBIs.
