Mets fan here; I'm totally jacked over this. To get him and not give up anyone from the roster and to hold onto our #1 prospect was huge. He's the ace we need.

I'm pissed because I'm an Indians fan and Sabathia is going to want a similar contract. He has one year left and I'm only going to watch him play it out and go to a large-market team.

Such is the MLB.

Fairways and Greens.

Enjoy Santana. I'm a Yankees fan and not getting him was really upsetting. Seriously, Ian Kennedy holds up this deal? He might not even begin the season in the Major Leagues. He can also be replaced by Andrew Brackman, Alan Horne, Jeff Marquez, Ross Ohlendorf or Humberto Sanchez.

As for the notion of money, the Yanks have almost $125 million coming off the books in the next two years, $90 million of which comes off in 2008. Considering what he signed for it was approximately $12 million new dollars that it would have cost the Yankees.

I must be the only Yankee fan who thinks that Santana, Chamberlain, Wang, Pettitte and Mussina is much better than Pettitte, Wang, Chamberlain, Hughes and Kennedy.

The Mets just clinched the NL East. Essentially, they have two new starters, since Pedro missed almost all of 2007. There is not one team in the NL East that can boast a 3-4-5 of Perez, Maine and El Duque. All of them had an ERA in the threes and two of them had 15 wins.

    • The MTB Prime and Prime X had issues with the cover being too soft and getting cut too easily. They said it was more prevalent in the Prime than the Prime X which I found odd because that was the exact opposite of my experience.
    • Day 120 - Played 18; much better than yesterday. Miss right now is off the heel of the club, so I need to sort that out. 
    • Today we played Pease Golf Course in Portsmouth, NH. Course was in great shape but my game didn't show up. I will say I pitched and chipped fairly well but almost everything else was very hit or miss. Cost myself a lot hitting an in play drive with pulling my approach shots maybe 85% of the time. Finally figured out I had been swaying most of the round. Only took me until 13 to figure it out. Used what felt like a much more centered turn and the ballstriking improved. 18 tomorrow using a 2 man scramble format. Just looking to contribute. Been a blast though. 
    • Day 22: Hit balls with 7-iron using mevo+ to track dispersion. Was out for a long time after work; 86 balls but the first 50+ were 50% swings focusing on top of backswing feel and then just hitting the ball as a psychic reward. Finished with 20 balls close to full speed. Pretty happy with dispersion and also no horrendous misses. I’m chunking my priority piece out into two separate feels, first and more important is the position/balance at top of backswing which is what I was working on. Once I have that engrained I’ll move to transition part. 
    • FWIW I never really had issues with the previous generation of Snells. But… I'm not sure I played them a ton, either.
