Question Johan Santana to the sox?

Coco and Lester and some minor league prospects for him?


that is an eerily similar trade I heard from my friend a while ago.

The Twins are foolish if they settle for that duo. Crisp at best is a decent fielder, great legs and glove but the worst arm this side of Johnny Damon. I am still not sold on Lester, his control issues continue. They had better hop the throw-in players pan out.

Wow, what a starting rotation that would be: Santana, Beckett, Matzuzaka and whoever else you want to throw in there. God damn...

Crisp, Lester and a minor leaguer? If thats the case, then not to worry Sigs... no way the Yanks would have to give up Melky and Kennedy. The Twins would be retarded to take the supposed Sawks offer.

Santana, Beckett, Schilling, Dice-K? And all you lose is Crisp, Lester and two minor leaguers? Don't even play the season, give the championship to the Red Sox.

So if the Santana deal doesn't work out..word is that the same or similar deal could be used to get Dan Haren from Oakland. Lovely.

Wtf? Why do the A's trade away all of their good pitchers? Baseball annoys me... all the best teams keep getting all the best players.
