Speculation Abounds!
According to reports, the Red Sox have allegedly moved ahead of the Yankees in the Johan Santana Sweepstakes.
Whoop-de-doo. (yawn.)
Something tells me that the Twins are going to keep Santana until sometime in July, when it'll be determined if they're in the race for the American League Central Pennant. If they're out of it by then, they'll be looking to unload him for some talent. By then, they'll be willing to part with him for a whole lot less than they're jockeying for now.
So don't worry, fans... the Twins asking price is ASTRONOMICAL. They won't trade him until July unless some team out there is willing to mortgage it's future with some jaw-dropping deal.
I don't think it's gonna happen... at least, not yet...
GO YANKEES!
As a Yankee fan, you ought to be hoping the Red Sox do something so foolish. Might make the Sox great for a couple of years, but then comes the hangover of a deal like that. This Santana thing reminds me something of when the Rangers signed ARod--and away their future.

I agree. I think that it's foolish to trade away young talent. I really don't want the Yankees to do it.
