Carlos Santana before the AS break:

.246/.368/.421, 15 HR, 50 RBI, 48 R. About what you'd expect, probably better.

After the AS break:

.169/.249/.241, 4 HR 18 RBI, 18 R. Ouch!!

Santana has continued his putrid ways, as he's just 2-for-26 to start the season.

Meanwhile, at AAA, Vinnie Pasquantino is hitting to the tune of .297/.449/.405. Fellow prospect Nick Pratto is also at AAA, but he's not hitting well yet. Santana's contract is up after this season. How long until we see a change?

What about MJ Melendez, isn't he a potential Santana replacement?

I'm not sure. He hasn't played 1B in the minors at all (and he's also off to a putrid start, just 5 for 41).

Pratto is the guy. I suppose Pasquantino could be a placeholder. But they are unlikely to cut ties with Santana so quickly given the money.

Santana's contract is a sunk cost. They can move on at this point.

Greinke tripled his K's today.

Greinke tripled his K's today.

I watched Greinke throw an 87 mph fastball (swing and miss) as well as an 87 mph changeup (slightly low). Just Greinke things.....

torn ACL

torn ACL

officially dead to me

This 24 hours after I trade Merrifield for some power (because of the Eloy injury and what I thought was extra speed).

From a contender to a bust in 20 games. Wow.
