Carlos Beltran, who offered last summer to pay for a nose job for former Mets teammate Jon Niese, has in fact paid the $10,000 bill.
Niese went through with the rhinoplasty procedure in October. Beltran is now a member of the Cardinals.
His motivation for the nose job originally was cosmetic, but he said he has been breathing better since the elective procedure.
