How to Get Into Adrian Beltre's Head: When you see how Adrian Beltre responded to his head being rubbed while playing for the Boston Red Sox, you'll understand why his teammates couldn't stop themselves from doing it -- particularly Victor Martinez. Now he's in Texas, where the Rangers have picked up where the Sox left off. "Sometimes I thought about killing him," Beltre said of Martinez. "But I thought about it. ... I have a family so I didn't."
Based on his medical history, he should let them rub the noggin all they want and focus on protecting the macadamias.

I only wish that the Rangers had more opportunities to annoy him.Their offense is really in the dumps.
