Dejan faces a hard hitting questioner in the first question of today's Q&A.

The Johan Santana sweepstakes is over and the Mets are the winners, sending Carlos Gomez, Phil Humber, Deolis Guerra, and Kevin Mulvey. Umm, I'm not a GM or anything, but I think I would've taken any package that included Phil Hughes over those four guys. I think Bill Smith just pulled a Dave Littlefield. The deal is contingent upon the Mets and Santana working out an extension, which I think is kind of a given.

Meanwhile, the Erik Bedard trade is on hold until Peter Angelos finishes his meddling. Which will probably be never.

Some of these unusual contract clauses are amusing.
