Ya'll know already, and it was in the Twins thread, but I wanted to make a thread!

For those that don't know, Santana struck out 17 in a career-best, Twins-best and 2007 MLB best. Pitching 8 innings, he took himself out after 113 pitches, 17 Ks, 0 runs, 0 walks and 2 hits.

Here's the video:

Anybody know if he has expressed admiration for the Yankee tradition, a desire to wear the pinstripes someday?

Well, he's 28 at the moment, so I imagine he'll be being lined up for the 2023 season...
