Context on Adrian Beltre trade talks: He is 39. Full no-trade clause. He likely will prioritize team that has best chance to win World Series and/or place where he has familiarity. He played for #RedSox, for Terry Francona (#Indians), for Theo Epstein (#Cubs). @MLB @MLBNetwork

The key for the Indians to acquire Beltre would be Francona and the Rangers third baseman to be reunited once again.

We are a day away from the MLB Trade Deadline, and things are bound to get crazy.
