Keeping Santana is probably the biggest obstacle we face actually since it appears the Sox and Yanks are really not in this thing If our deal and every other teams deal appears worse than 2 first round picks…I’d say the Twins are evaluating that worth and could decide the picks are more valuable to their teams future.

Yes.... I understand we would gain the signing rights but I dont think I would want to be the team that gives up the players and the money. If everybody would hold tight, which Santana would prefer...... he could be had for $ not more. Just a thought..... t As much as i would love Santana to be a Met, I don’t think i could do it for what I consider a one year rental. Yes….

I would hate to lose OP to free agency. Pedro Santana Maine Perez Pelfrey thats nasty Speaking of economics and pitching; what’s the deal with Oliver Perez and his contract?

I am in a neutral zone as far as this trade goes i can't figure if the mets shoudl trade for him let me break it down: 1. dont trade f-mart he will be a star the kid is 18 he is still a work in progress 2. its ok to trade the farm...the mets have 3 first round draft picks this year if the mets change there drafting style then they will prob get some star potienal players 3. Johan Santana is going to sign long term with the mets or any team aquires him. He has a no trade claus and he will reject any trade unless he gets a 5-6 year plus contract teams already know and assume this going in to discussion with the Twins please omar just do something pull the trigger or say no im tired of all this Johan this, Johan that stuff circling around i really don’t understand what everyone is getting all crazy about…get your facts straight people!!!

Is Lohse the answer? Who knows, but he adds depth and development time for the prospects. A snell level guy for a more manageable set of prospects would work nicely too. Just please, get this season started, already? I have never been so tired of an offseason before! I am warming up to the idea of a replacement #5 at this point. Is Lohse the answer?
