Adrian Beltre, a slick-fielding third baseman who is wildly inconsistent at the plate (sometimes excellent, sometimes terrible), will be joining the Red Sox according to multiple sources.

The deal appears to be 1 year guaranteed at $10 million, with a player option for a second year at $5 million.

My quick reaction: I’m not wild about the player, but I love the 1 year deal.  I’ll post more on this later.
