It’s an exciting week for we rare few, who cheer on the Mets and the Giants. First, the Mets landed about the only trade that has mattered this off-season, getting Johan Santana, a real, honest-to-Ged #1 starter, for four minor leaguers. Thank you, Omar. (The deal isn’t done yet; the Mets have until 5:00 Friday [...]
