What did we expect? Where are Fuentes, Guerrier, Rauch, Crain(although I hated his guts, he had a good season last year) the management can't expect to lose 4 key components to the AL's best bullpen and expect to have a successful one?
This is so frustrating. We can't even win when we put up SEVEN!!!
I think Kubel would be the most likely, just because he is the only guy on the team that hasn't sucked, so other teams may actually be willing to give up some good prospects for him. Though, what I've read is that he is projected to be an A type free agent, so whoever the Twins get for him would have to be greater than the 2 draft picks they get in next years draft as compensation.
I say take the two draft picks. That would've been the best option with Santana once upon a time.
The best option with Santana would have been to not be stupid and take the Red Sox offer when it was on the table.
That assumes there was in fact an offer. I don't really trust the rumor-based reporting that happens these days. Until a deal is actually made, it's all speculative - and all sorts of crap can be thrown out there for different reasons (i.e. to drive up the price of acquiring a player if a rival is involved in the potential trade talk).
I got an email from the Twins, reminding me to go online and vote for Twins players for the All Star Game. Ha, yeah right. I'm not voting for a single one of these bums, they don't deserve to go to the all star game, and they don't deserve time off over the all star break either. They should spend that time practicing, god knows every single one of them needs it.
