Santana Might Be Bronx Bound
The Yankees know how important it is for them to get Santana from the Twins. Pettitte is looking to retire and Boston has offered a solid proposal to the Twinkies. Since the Yanks are tired of playing second fiddle to the BoSox they are going to do something they did not want to; add Phil Hughes(their best pitching prospect) in the offer for Santana. If the reports and are true the Yankees will be the front runner in the Santana sweepstakes. Boston may not want to go all-in with Jacoby and Buchholz leaving the Yankees to buy the pot. But its not over 'til Big Papi bats.

Hi Matt,
Great blog site.
From your post on the Herald:
"Let the Yanks overpay for Santana, then the Sox can get Haren and win the East again."
Amen, brother. Good call. Any idea what Billy Beane and the A's might be asking for Dan Haren? He'd be a great addition.
thanks pjp,
I think the Sox could get Haren for Lester, Coco and someone like Moss. Here is what the SF Cron. said it would take. "The steep price would be three or four hotshot youngsters, can't-miss types who would go onto the 40-man roster and therefore be close to big-league ready."
I would part with Lester, Moss, and certainly Coco, for either Santana or Haren, but I would not part with Jacoby or Clay B. for anyone. My guess is that the Sox will land either of these aces, but who knows?
