Carlos Beltran has been hired as a game analyst by the YES Network and is expected to call 36 games, matching number he wore as a Yankee. Smart and insightful, @carlosbeltran15 will be a strong addition to our booth. Welcome, Carlos! @AndrewMarchand first reported possibility

This is Beltrán’s first big-time return to baseball since being fired by the Mets in 2020. After his name was tied to Houston’s 2017 sign-stealing scandal, the Mets and Beltrán mutually decided to part ways before he managed a single game.
In addition to his new role with the YES Network, Beltrán will appear on next year’s Hall of Fame ballot for the first time.
