Santana had a 5.61 ERA and 1.49 WHIP on June 3 last season.
From that point, he went 1.50 ERA and 0.71 WHIP.

In light of his those last four months, 2.61 and 0.92 WOULD be a drop-off. I'll take those numbers, even if they're not skewed by offseason elbow surgery.

I said much worse as I see him probably come crashing back to earth in '06 -- which is all relative I guess. You can't argue with the numbers he put up this year, but I'm just still not a believer. :-?

I'll just say that there are going to be a lot of disappointed Santana owners and believers come July or so.

I don't think there is any way he improves his ratios from last year. I went with slightly worse because it would be pretty hard to put up those numbers again in consecutive years. He'll still have a good year though.

Slightly worse. And when I say slightly worse, I mean take the smallest numbers to diminish his stats. I'm sorry but I never saw such a streak of dominance by a pitcher (wasnt born when herscheiser through those scoreless innings) and it just boggled my mind. I expect Santana to keep baffling hitters again this year.

I went with slighty worse. I dont see him repeating
