It was reported last week that Ervin Santana will seek a $100 million contract this winter.
Santana's agents at Proformance have prepared a binder full of statistical comparisons to make the case for the right-hander.
One of the comparisons was Santana and Zack Greinke in the three seasons before they reached free agency.
Greinke had a 3.83 ERA in that period, a 106 ERA-plus and a ratio of 1.215 walks and hits per innings pitched (WHIP). Santana, in a comparable number of innings, had a 3.85 ERA, a 101 ERA-plus and 1.208 WHIP.
