Well the Mets finally got Johan Santana in their rotation - better late than never.  Since everyone in New York was calling him “Santana Claus” before Christmas, I had wanted to draw him in a sleigh bringing presents to whichever New York team managed to get him, and maybe have Omar or Cashman as one of his elves.

 

Christmas came and went, so this is another take on the image, with the drooping, brown tree in the background (I wish I had had more time to detail it).  It was obviously a rush job, having heard about the deal on the radio, and the only other things in my mind that could have been better are Santana’s hands on the money sack and I had wanted to see a staircase in the background through the archway.
