top banana

was schooling my travelling companions on johan santana on the ride down only to wake up to find out the mets had wore of attrition. after a soundly reviled trade earlier this offseason and an infamous collapse at the end of last season this comes as welcome news. guess i should leave town more often. and while the mets had to send four of their top five prospects they were able to hold on to fernando martinez who is considered their most promising.

some have concerns about santanas longterm health but pitchers are always a crapshoot and despite a down year last season he still was fifth in the cy young voting, an award he received twice in the preceding four years. the mets would be overjoyed to have down seasons of that nature. so the mets have a true ace in his prime something they cannot have said since dwight goodens early career flameout.

here are his career stats.
