MisterJLA is quite the populist sports fan, I see.
If the contract Santana received is indicative of what he wanted and/or was expecting, then the Twins made the right move. That’s a lot of money and a lot of service time to commit to a pitcher about to turn 29. Santana is not likely to be much of a bargain when he’s 35 and making close to $25 million.
most hispanic pitchers start to burn out at 31, the mets are dead in the water.
