I don't understand why people believe that the Twins are that hot on Coco Crisp. Sounds like BS to me. |

Re: ***yankees official offseason thread*****
Red Sox reportedly take lead in race for Santana
Beginning of article states: "A little birdie says the Boston Red Sox have become the favorite in the Johan Santana trade sweepstakes. The Twins would receive four players for the Twins' two-time Cy Young Award winner, including center fielder Coco Crisp, 28. Others would be shortstop prospect Jed Lowry, 23; left-handed pitcher Jon Lester, 23; and right-handed pitcher Justin Masterson, 22." Sounds better than Melky + Hughes. |

[/ QUOTE ] the twins love toolsy outfielders with sub .330 OBPs ldo i don't know much about the non-lester prospects, but that doesn't sound much better than melky + hughes. the yankees don't have much else to offer though, at least not in the way of MLB ready talent they're willing to deal. |

Re: ***yankees official offseason thread*****
i have a feeling that if the Yankees do get Santana it will be because they give up waaaay to much to get him.

Re: ***yankees official offseason thread*****
any package that includes hughes would destroy any package that includes any red sox prospects not named ellsbury or buccholz. Pray that the twins don't see it the same way. Hughes and Cabrera together would just be a sick fleecing.

James [/ QUOTE ] fleecing in what context - by objective trade value, yes, of course. the twins will receive nothing but a draft pick for santana this time next year but presumably if the twins are set to deal him, this is the rare chance to get a franchise-level pitcher like this, and part of the gain of acquiring him is the loss of the red sox who might've also done so. |

Hughes + Melky isn't even close to getting it done. [/ QUOTE ] Its easily enough if: a. Johan wants to be in NY b. The Twins aren't as interested in Coco Crisp as they'd have you believe. I still think Kennedy + Melky + someone not named Hughes, Cano or Chamberlain is enough and will likely go through. |
