I remember one pitcher who was considered a stud like Santana. He got a big [payday contract and ended up on the Dodgers and the Yankees. He was paid out big dollars and ended up either hurt or underperforming for most of his contract. I am not saying this is comparable to Santana, but I do hesitate at this point . If it is just the money and years maybe, just the prospects, maybe but both...I just don't want to end up regreting this...

Trust me, Detroit is going to be amazing with adding the Marlin men - but Boston is still the favorite in AL.

I'd much rather read sarcasm than whining. Please, if you don't like the santana posts, don't read them. They will not stop until the trade is made. If that's a problem, go outside, read a book, or do <i>something</i> besides hitting refresh whining about whining about whining about whining about whining Oh Yeah! I <i>almost</i> want to go back to work ;) well at least that thread was about 60/40 in the ratio of funny posts to don’t-post-about-santana posts….

Maybe we can work out something that gets Isiah and Joel Sherman fired if Cablevision owns the Post. We just need turn Johnnie Cochran into a prosecutor. I appreciate the idea.
