49ners 4 life anyone with a brain could look back now and say we should have gotten Beckett instead of Pavano. But Pavano was the pitcher with his breakout season before he was picked up by the Yankees not Josh Beckett. And for trading for Santana I disagree, Johan Santana is now 4-2 with a three something ERA which is very solid but Rasner has filled in well and is a big improvement over how Phil Hughes was pitching before he got injured. But when Phil Hughes steps up he will also be a solid starter. Yes Santana would be a great pitcher to have but I would rather have two promising young starters over Johan in hope of having them be aces in two or three years. The years after this look very promising with our rotation shaping up to be Wang, Hughes, Kennedy, Joba ?, C.C Sabathia ? , Yu Darvish ?. Even if one of the three question marks goes to our rotation we will have a solid five starters. And i didn't want to trade one of our best pitching prospects and one of our top outfield prospects for Santana.
