If it kept Santana from the Yankees and we never ended up with him, well that was fine too. We DON'T need him: he'd be great, yeah. But I honestly think this was more about keeping him from NY/making them give away the house than actually signing him. Hopefully, it'll still get done. As far as Jacoby, I hate to say it, but if I were a ballplayer, THAT would be who I signed with. Guy gets the big money for his clients, no doubt about it.
