They are overstocked with people who hold bats and can't play the field. I don't know if we-re overstocked with 'hitters' though.
considering the money it took BAL to sign him it may have been a good pass, they have to get someone and santana is the only one leftjkitsune":uaeoo29x said:Ubaldo Jimenez would be a good add IMO.

Santana also may not be a step down both had bad 2011 and 2012's but both bounced back in 2013 now clearly what Jimenez did prior to that is impressive but I don't know. If they don't sign anyone it proves how inept they are

I just think that we have two high-level tradeable pieces - Paxton and Franklin - that probably will have to be packaged together to get the return we want/need at either SP or OF. I mean, we could trade Walker, but I don't see that happening.
If they get Santana, who I'm not thrilled about, that at least does make sense and mean that we can focus on a trade for an outfielder.
I'm not thrilled about Santana either, he the model of inconsistency in la. However they need someone who will give them 200 innings and will maintain an ERA around 4 if not better.Smelly McUgly":j0h2y3yt said:I hope I didn't sound panicky in my criticism.
