At MLB.com, Marty Noble writes about Johan Santana’s ability to improve the Mets…at the plate.
According to Noble, a Silver Slugger Award clause was included in the contract Santana signed last Friday.
Santana’s agent, Peter Greenberg, as quoted by Noble…
‘Johan didn’t ask that we include one in the contract…But we know our client…We’ve told him, ‘No, think doubles, Shea plays big.’”
…it’s always fun to have a pitcher that can hit, just ask the three Marlins fans who i’m sure enjoyed watching Dontrelle Willis kill the Mets to the tune of 12 for 31 with three home runs and eight RBI over the last three seasons…
