With Red Sox GM Theo Epstein sitting nearby on the same stage, New York Yankees GM Brian Cashman made it pretty clear that if it's up to him, the Yankees will not make the much-discussed deal for Johan Santana according to the New York Daily News.

And if Epstein's reaction is any indication, neither will the Red Sox. The setting was a baseball lecture given for fans by the two rival GMs at William Paterson University in Wayne, N.J., Friday. And while it was mostly a chance for Cashman and Epstein to keep the talk light and enjoy the evening, the Santana discussion may have been revealing.

"I can't talk about another team's player," said Cashman, "but I can say that I'm committed to our young players."

Kind of rare to see the us stick with our young guns.
