While it does look even wiser now that the Twins didn’t take on the long, risky contract it would have taken to sign Santana, it doesn’t necessarily make the Gomez trade brilliant. It’s quite possible that’s the best they could have gotten. But if it’s true they could have had Lester, who just threw a no-hitter, or Ellsbury, who has 80 points higher OBP than Gomez, along with Masterson, who’s looking at least as good a prospect as any of the pitchers they got, and Jed Lowry, who would be starting for the Twins’ sorry infield right now, it’s hard to say the Gomez trade looks so brillian, no matter how good Gomez turns out to be.

Kevin, Guerra’s only 18 years old. Lets wait until he physically matures before we compare him to those Slowey and Garza.

Santana has always been a slow starter and I feel that he’ll eventually rebound and have excellent numbers at the end of the 2008 season.

I said it here first Santana has lost some zip and will be lucky to go 15-15 this year.
