Should the Tigers Go for Santana?

Drew Sharp thinks the Tigers should get involved in the Santana sweepstakes;

While the Red Sox and Yankees offer the Twins a package of primary prospects, the Tigers should dangle Jeremy Bonderman along with some lower minor league prospects. It would ensure them the best one-two lefty-righty starting duo in the American League with Santana and Justin Verlander.

A breakdown in starting pitching cost the Tigers more last season than an injury-riddled bullpen or Gary Sheffield's bad shoulder. There's no questioning that Verlander's inconsistency late in the season is more likely an aberration, but it's not a certainty that Bonderman can overcome the obstacles that rendered him a hostage to first-inning difficulties

.

Somehow, I don't think the Twins want to see Johan in the same division.

I haven't read Drew Sharp in forever. He's essentially a local provacateur - he has no credibility and builds readership by pissing off local fans. Every city has one of these "journalists," most people recognize their purpose, yet still read them. It's better to ignore them altogether.
