A tad late, but what can you do when it's so early in the game?

I have a feeling this will be it for Santana as an Angel. Either a trade or dfa might be coming

Release him and give him to Major League Baseball.
They can use him full-time as a batting practice for home run derby.

Demote Santana, trade him, just get him off our team! He is all over the map, and it's not good. We can't wait for a loss every time he takes the field. Head case!!! UGH!!!!

LOL!

Here's that quote Santana made about being a "home run pitcher":

How many times are the Angels going to run Santana out there? Trade him, release him or send him to the minors. I mean he does not give the team a chance to win and when he does get a lead you know it will be short lived. The Angels better find a fix in the rotation or they will find themselves chasing Oakland and Texas.

I think Santana's problem is he is over weight and out of shape.They Angels have him listed on the roster at 185 lbs but he looks more like 240 plus.

They keep saying he's in shape, but I swear his face was never that round before.

I'm thinking that we should keep him around just to pitch to our guys in the Home Run Derby next year. ; )

If he wears his uniform baggy enough then you can't tell if he over weight.

I agree trade him enough is enough. Year after year he is so inconsistent. I'm so over Santana.

I do too. I don't think the Angels will pick up his option next year unless he turns it around big time.

He recently signed a new agent did he not?

I think even he knows that he has worn out his welcome. I am not sure what his problem has been. A lack of consistency in a pitcher usually points to not knowing how to get outs.

Not sure that his problem is physical or his mechanics.

I just know that I am getting weary of seeing him in an Angels uniform.

Good luck to him. I doubt seriously that he is here in 2013. Just don't see the rationale when pitching is so important to winning.

Are you saying Bartolo Colon's uniform was too tight?

I think its mental. How many times have we seen him get two quick outs and that third out is almost impossible for him to get without giving up at least a HR? I'm not sure what can be done about though.
