No sour grapes here dude. True, I would've loved that the Yanks landed Santana, but not for the asking price of the Twins... which was a kings ransom (3 mid to high level major league ready youngers). Are the Mets prospects highly rated? Sure. Will they pan out for the Twins? Who knows... and it'll be years before we do know. That's my point - Boston and the Yanks' offer dwarfed the Mets. Oh well.

And please... what is this about intolerable Yankee fans? You'll never hear a peep from me about anything that happens during the season regarding the Mets... b/c mainly I could care less(although that could change w/ Santana around) but many Mets fans I know are all over our Jock ... all the time.

Anyway, 25 mil per season should get the job done... I don't see Minaya getting stingy at this point. He can't.

and there're also yankee fans who berate the mets to know end. let's agree to disagree. could care less what the yankees do for the simple reason they're not in the NL east.

Agreed

this is like getting 2 for 1 from the twins b/c Oliver Perez has the stuff to be untouchable. If he can learn some things from Santana, as a fellow lefty, the Mets will be set.

They didnt trade him to an AL team cuz they dont want to have to face him during the season or playoffs, just the world series (if they can even get there).

No, they didn't trade him to an AL team because the Yankees and Red Sox both took their offers off the table by the time they were ready to deal him, leaving, in essence, only the Mets as a team Santana would go to.
