Johan Santana’s a Met for one thing: Ring!

Johan Santana was not brought to New York, at a cost of four prospects and more than $137 million over the next six years, to win an Opening Day game against the Florida Marlins.

He wasn’t brought here to create a culture of winning, or to fill a ballpark, or to send a message to Hispanic ballplayers around the league that they, too, could find a welcoming place in Flushing.

All of those tasks already have been accomplished by others, guys such as Tom Glavine and Pedro Martinez and Carlos Beltran and Jose Reyes. There is only one reason why Johan Santana is in a Mets uniform today and will be for at least the next six years. There is only one thing left for him to do, and it is the one thing none of those other guys has been able to do.”*
