    Santana will go down as one of the best Rule V picks this side of George Bell. He was taken from the Astros, used as a reliever for a year, and then sent to the minors. Then he came back, and well, you know...

    I'll bet you he doesn't. Reverse lock and all that.

    Johan, Schmohan. When it comes to the Mets, Johan is swimming in Rafael's wake.

    Is Johan man enough to surpass the wily, banjo-hitting middle infielder in Mets' Santana lore? Signs point to no.

    P.S. I love baseball if only for the fact I can use the term "banjo-hitting".

    Kind of. Marlins took him in the Rule 5 draft, and immediately turned around and traded him for Jared Camp.

    New York Times had a great piece on the story of how Santana got found earlier this week.
