Re: For Dissection....2008 Red Sox Roster........

That is actually a reasonable package of prospects for Santana.

This would be a huge deal for the Twins, much better than I thought they'd get.
So long as the Red Sox re-sign Santana, it would have to be considered a win for them as well, even though they're giving up more long term value.
Question about Crisp. If a player is traded in the middle of a long term contract, he can opt out in to free agency at the end of that season. Is there a service time requirement for this to go into affect? I can't imagine the Twins would do this deal if Crisp were going to hit the market after 2008, although Lowrie, Lester, Masterson, and one year of Crisp, and a draft pick or two is still a pretty good haul.
