“We know that we don’t have the team we assumed to have in spring training,” Beltre said at Monday’s All-Star Game news conferences here. “But we still have a good enough team to compete. That does not reflect on our record. Everything we’ve done, that hasn’t been good enough. “Obviously, these four days will be for everybody to sit back, relax, try to start over and not think about that stretch that we had.” “You have to see what you can do to help the ballclub,” Beltre said. “It doesn’t matter what happened yesterday. You could be losing 20 in a row. The next game is the one you can win. You can’t sit down and feel sorry for yourself, crawl back and believe the season’s over. “I always have that in me, that I’m trying to do whatever I can to win ballgames. I’m not going to help my team sit there and feel sorry for themselves.”
