Around SBN: Explaining Jeremy Lin's Early, Surprising Success

Carlos Santana: cranking out the hits!


Carlos Santana hit yet another HR last night to make it 4 HRs in 4 straight games.  39 of his 81 hits have been for extra bases (19 2B, 1 3B, 19 HR) AND he has 63 BBs vs. 57 Ks.  Is this guy going to tear up MLB pitching or what?  Okay, maybe that's a bit much, but what are the Indians waiting for in promoting him?!  I just don't get it.

Is Wyatt Toregas really standing in the way?  Maybe once Matt LaPorta gets called up again, Santana can see some action at DH for Columbus?  Anyway, can you believe Carlos Santana for Casey Blake?  Dodger fans have to be raving mad.

I believe the Indians want him stay at AA for a little while so he can work on his defense. Besides, he was slumping before going on this HR tear. Things could soon change though if Victor Martinez is traded, but right now there’s no need to rush him.

martinez

he probably will be dealt by the deadline, santana’s defense could be improved like you said

Carlos Guillen, the Latino Punto
