"If the Red Sox get Santana," said an executive of one NL team that's grateful to be in the other league, "they might be the best team in the history of the frigging universe."
What the quote should say is:
If the Red Sox get Santana without dealing Jacoby Ellsbury, then Theo Epstein should get a plaque in Cooperstown immediately.
According to espn.com, the Twins have asked for Jon Lester's medical records. The deal on the table is:
Lester, Coco Crisp, Justin Masterson, and Jed Lowrie for Johan.
Let's see. We would be sad to see Lester go, true. Could we survive that loss? Uh.. yea. We would be dealing Crisp, but keeping the better player in Ellsbury. And then dealing two top prospects, which... well I mean, it's Johan Santana. I hope they become superstars, much the way I hope Al Jefferson becomes a 10 time all star with the Timberwolves.
That city is great. Kevin Garnett, Papi Ortiz, Randy Moss, and now very potentially the greatest left handed pitcher in the universe.
Johan Santana, Josh Beckett, DiceK, Curt Schilling, Tim Wakefield, Clay Buchholz.
