you have to admit there is going to be a difference, and the mets are cringeing at the thought of dealing this out, but have no choice,

santanas agent has them by the balls and after the collapse last year the mets fans want results. hes going to get more then zito is by far

I kinda disagree with this for 2 reasons-
1) the Mets know what they're getting into by making this trade
2) I wasn't naive to the fact that after the deal was all said and done- no matter what team he got traded to, or even if the Twins somehow retained him, that he's gonna be the 2nd highest paid player in baseball behind A-Rod.
