Phillies Might Have Shot In NL East After All

Looks like Pedro Feliz might be leading a victory parade down Broad Street after all! Today Jayson Stark reports the Mets and Johan Santana are having problems reaching an agreement on a contract extension, as for some reason the Mets don't want to give him a guaranteed sixth year because... I don't know, I would give Santana his own Ron Paul Blimp if he asked for it. He's the best pitcher in the game, bar none.
Anyway, it's unlikely the trade's going to fall apart, but there is always hope, Phillies fans. And by that I mean there is always hope that will soon be crushed when Santana wins 30 games next year.
