By Jordan Shusterman

The smartphone has become such a routine part of our everyday lives that we often take it for granted. Of course we can pull a little device out of our pocket and look up any information in an instant. Of course we can call or FaceTime anyone anywhere in the world whenever we so desire.

Carlos Beltran paid homage to all of his former teams with his Halloween costume -- all of his former Major League teams, at least. The Lansing Lugnuts -- whom Beltran played 11 games for in 1996 -- did not get a shout-out, unfortunately.

Astros prospect Myles Straw also had a great costume for Halloween:

Twins prospect Brent Rooker welcomed the offseason in the most fitting way:

The Arizona Fall League is still in session, and Mets prospect Peter Alonso is still crushing baseballs:

Cubs prospect Justin Steele was proud of his defensive efforts:

Astros pitching prospect Forrest Whitley is just trying to avoid the long ball:

Rhys Hoskins was disappointed that more people don't want him to bring the 'stache back in 2019:
