Edward Thoma of the Mankato Free Presss in Minnesota broke down the Johan Santana trade over the weekend from a bottom line perspective. Apparently the Twins drew 33,000 fans per Santana start in 2007. Caught a little of last night's Twins game on ESPN and the fans sure seemed to like what they saw in Carlos Gomez, just one of the many ex-Mets to get off to a good start to his season.
Out Magazine, yes the same Out that once ran an op/ed piece from a man who claimed to be the partner of an unnamed gay baseball star, had an interesting blog item on the Phillies once being New York's baseball team.
Change is definitely the big theme this season. The Rocky Mountain News chose to focus on change in its 2008 baseball preview.

Binghamton's pumped to be getting Mike Carp back. He looks less like a ballplayer than Bruce Berenyi.

Mike DeFelice was the most unathletic-looking athlete I have ever seen. If he wasn't a ballplayer, he'd never get laid. He didn't just get hit with the ugly stick, he was assaulted with it. It'll be interesting to see how long Fernando Martinez stays in AA. I'm sure the Mets plan on him playing in New Orleans by June.
Good call on DiFelice. One day we should sit down and develop the all-time doesn't really look like a ballplayer team.
In fact, that could be a column for this site in the very near future.
