I see him as a potential Gil Meche part two.

I'm not saying getting Santana would be the worst thing we've ever done but I'd have my expectations tempered.
I'm in a bad place as a Royals fan. I've loved this team for so long and remember the glory days vividly and all I want from a sports fan standpoint is to have those days again. Maybe I don't trust anything they do anymore. Maybe my overly believing homer has turned to overly pessimistic after "our time" has turned into crap time again. I'm just tired of getting my hopes up for nothing right now. I'll get over it like I always do.
