Last night, on SNY’s Mets Hot StoveCarlos Beltran told host Kevin Burkhratd that his knee is feeling good.

Mets Hot Stove airs every Thursday on SNY at 7 pm during the off season.

Beltran said he will continue to work in the off season, doing low-impact exercises, after which he’ll soon start hitting and getting his arm loose, and he looks forward to being ready for spring training.

Right now, he explained, he is not concerned about the issue with his knee returning next season.

Beltran said he was disappointed with how he and the team played last season.  According to Beltran, while watching on TV from the disabled list, he was equally frustrated by how the team was losing, as he was in the actual losses.

In the end, he says the team needs to play smart baseball all season, noting it is just as important to win games in April as it is to win games in September.

Regrading David Wright, Beltran said he has no doubt Wright will return to form next season, as he continues on a path to becoming a Hall of Fame player.
