Yanks should say no thanks for Santana
By the time 2008 rolls around, the Johan Santana Rumor Mill will get
cranked up again.
The latest bit of speculation is that Minnesota would accept a package of
Phil Hughes, Melky Cabrera and Jeff Marquez for their lefty ace. I’m sure
that sounds acceptable to many fans.
But, for a second, look at the bigger picture. Are the Yankees developing
their kids to play them or trade them?
Santana is terrific, no doubt about it. But adding him to the roster would
cost $20 million a season plus a 40-percent luxury tax penalty. The Yankees
will be paying for what Santana did in Minnesota.
Santana could be great again. But he was 15-13, 3.33 last season and will
be 29 in March. He also has thrown 932 innings the last four seasons,
counting the postseason. Sure, he could be terrific. Or he could be the
next Mike Hampton. Nobody knows.
Hughes and Cabrera are symbols of what Brian Cashman is trying to do with
the Yankees. The organization did a great job of scouting, drafting and
then developing Hughes into the best pitching prospect in the minors.
Cabrera is a guy they rushed to the majors in 2005, screwed up and then
built back up into a player good enough to take a job away from Johnny
Damon. He would have been cut or traded five years ago.
Trade these guys now and the message is pretty clear: The Yankees are
only paying lip service to development. This isn’t trading a few B-level
prospects for Bobby Abreu in July. This would be an old-school Yankees move.
It’s their money, not ours. But I sit there at the Stadium and listen.
People cheer loudest for the players who came up in pinstripes. People
respect A-Rod but they love Jeter. They wanted Clemens do well. They
adored Andy Pettitte.
Cashman has somehow made it cool for Yankee fans to care about Jose Tabata
even though 99 percent of them have no idea what he looks like.
Spend the money on draft picks, Dominican shortstops and Taiwanese pitchers.
Go find kids in Korea, Australia, Venezuela and everywhere else. Hire more
scouts and go see every junior college prospect in Texas. Go find the next
Santana, don’t trade for the old one.
Let Santana go to the Mets or the Angels or better yet, let him stay in
Minnesota where he belongs. If the Red Sox were serious, they would have
done the deal weeks ago. They’re pushing chips around the table hoping
somebody in Tampa will go all in so they can fold.
We’ve spent two years wondering how good Phil Hughes could be.
Let’s find out.
