I hope the Red Sox get Santana

1- The Mets wont have to give up the farm and wont have to pay him ridiculous money

2- The Red Sox will pwn the AL

3- The Yanks will finish 2nd place

Red Sox Leading For Santana?

UPDATE, 11-29-07 at 2:50pm: Buster Olney suggests the same package as Walters from the Red Sox, except with Michael Bowden rather than Masterson. However the fourth player is still undetermined. He also notes that the Yankees are simultaneously talking to the Twins.

UPDATE, 11-29-07 at 1pm: The Boston Herald has a bit more. Basically the Red Sox are only willing to include one of Ellsbury/Buchholz/Lester, while the Twins want two from that group.

FROM 11-29-07 at 8:30am:

Shooter Charley Walters is back with a new column of rumors and whatnot. Remember, Walters was the one saying the Garza for Delmon rumor wouldn't die.

Despite the exclusion of Jacoby Ellsbury, Walters says the Red Sox have the lead in the Johan Santana sweepstakes. The package would be Coco Crisp, Jed Lowrie, Jon Lester, and Justin Masterson. Not a bad haul. I was thinking Lowrie might become a target of the Twins.

The following clubs are interested in Carlos Silva: Tigers, Mets, Phillies, and Royals. None of those teams are new.

The amount of cash each club is getting this year for online media properties like MLB.com sites: $25MM. And don't forget the Twins get about $20MM in revenue sharing. Maybe that's why they have interest in Aaron Rowand.

If the Yanks get Santana...I might cry a little

Minnesota is making curious moves. I don't know if I would trade a pitching prospect for Yound, and trading for Craig Monroe was odd as well. It seems like life is going to **** in Minny without Terry Ryan
