According to the Minneapolis Star Tribune, "indications are the Twins will not offer Johan Santana a five-year extension."
The newspaper reports that the Twins "will make another below-market offer, one that Santana barely considers while waiting to hit the open market." Why bother? Minnesota has already offered meaningless, no-way-he-accepts-that contracts to free agents Torii Hunter and Carlos Silva. For whatever it's worth, Phillies general Pat Gillick said earlier this week that he believes "Santana will be moved for sure" this offseason.
It will be very interesting to see what happens to Santana. I want to know which teams gives up the farm for this guy, the best pitcher in baseball.
