Meredith sends along this picture of indifferent, me-first* Carlos Beltran signing autographs for little kids in Port St. Lucie:

She adds: “While Carlos was moving between fields today, a group of kids asked him for autographs. He said, ‘Walk with me’ and proceeded to sign for them throughout his walk to the main field, even stopping for a couple of photos, and making sure that a fan asking for Carlos to return a borrowed pen got it back.”

*- It’s probably been long enough since I’ve posted one of my numerous defenses of Beltran that I should mention that when I call Beltran selfish or lazy or disinterested or soft in this space, I am being sarcastic. You might have figured that out from the title of the post, but I wanted to cover my bases.
