The NY media is trying to blame Santana's no hitter for the fact that his season has gone down the drain since then. Santana is denying it and frankly I don't buy it either. It was over a month and a half ago. He's had a couple of good starts since then as well. But he's been getting hit hard for the most part and is no longer locating his pitches. It's just a really rough spell.

Wouldn't be averse to him skipping his next start or something even though they can ill afford to give up games, like they are today with fucking Miguel Batista starting while Matt Harvey sits by idly in the minors.

And besides, even if Santana's struggles ARE related to the no-no...it was still worth it. That game was probably like a top 3 moment for me in my time as a Mets fan. I wouldn't give it up for anything.
