Pitching better than the Mets staff for the never 5 years is not great
trick. Finding a pitcher who will pitcher an ERA below 3.25, with 200
plus innings and 15 wins over 5 years is hard to find. Pitchers that
ae likely to do that aren't available for any reasonable price. If
you believe that we should trade Milledge, Martinez, Goez, Pelfrey and
Reres to get Kazmir or even Santana if you have rosey glasses,, I'd
disagree to do such a thing.

Disagreement is no big deal. But, I doubt we would have to part with as
much as you suggest. Especially for Santana who is likely to walk after
next season with no repayment to the Twins.
