No, it's not a done deal. But chances are...

Theo did say he had no issues with a Crisp/Ellsbury battle for CF during spring training, but I'd like to see Ellsbury be able to start and for a new, young catcher...

Re: Thank God its finally over!!!!
The onus is on the Mets. With Santana, it probably pushes the Braves and Phillies to just compete for the wild card. Without, it's a three-horse race with, to me, no clear-cut frontrunner. A healthy Santana probably guarantees the Mets the NL East. I'm sure his agent is going to make the Mets well-aware of this fact.
Worst-case for Santana is that he finishes in third or fourth with the Twins this season and then signs a mega-deal with the Mets, Red Sox, Yankees, Angels, etc. all competing for his services.

Re: Thank God its finally over!!!!
I imagine there's a willingness on both sides to make this happen now.

Re: Thank God its finally over!!!!
He was looking for (if the reports were correct) a 7/yr. extension for $20M per. The Mets (if the reports were correct) wanted to go with 5/yr with more per year.
Say, 6 years $126-132M? Crazy? I dunno.

Re: Thank God its finally over!!!!
As for the option, Zito will probably have just enough veteran-savvy at that point, assuming Brian Sabean is still in charge.
...is it obvious enough that my favorite non-OTM SBNation site is McCovey Chronicles?
