Around SBN: Race to the Roses & BCS Bowl Predictions

A-rod or Johan

Mike & Mike on ESPN radio were talking a lot about the possibility of the Twins trading Johan Santana this offseason. So I am asking you my fellow Halos Heaven brethren, if you would be interested in trading to get Santana, who would you give up to get him, and how much would signing him to an extension affect play in your willingness to go after him.

Also, would you rather have Johan, or A-rod, assuming that you can only get one of them.

I would trade Ervin Santana, Reggie Willits, and one or two minor leaguers for Johan Santana.

Also, if you can get them both, get them both.

Johan
got beat by Cleveland 6 times this year.  HE plays every 5th day and costs lots of prospects and money.

A Rod.

Mike wants some slugging and so do I.

Get 'em both
According to ESPN's stats, he was 1-5 against Cleveland.  As they say the devils are in the details.  Lets look atthe numbers against the tribe. It not like they "owned" him. His ERA was 4.38, he always piutched at least 6 Innings, and never gave up more than 4 Earned Runs. In 4 of the 5 games he lost, the scores were 4-3, 5-2, 2-0, and 5-3. Hardly getting blown up by today's standards.  Besides, we only play the tribe 6 or 9 times a year.
With the revolving door in the AL Central, you never know who you are going to play come October.  What I want to know is how did he do against the A's (1-1, 2.08 ERA), Mariners (1-0, 2.57 ERA), and Rangers (2-0, 0.60 ERA)?
What about Boston you ask? 1-0, 1.08 ERA
It is way overdue Arte. #5 needs to be retired by the Angels.

A-Rod
Does ESPN have a nightly segment on how Johann did?

Of course not!
He doesn't play for the yankess or red sox.

A-Rod
I want to wear a shirt that says A-Rod but has the Angels logo where the "A" would be.

A-Rod
Both will cost a boat load of money, but Johan will also cost a ton of prospects.
