Johan Santana ends up in NY!!

Oh wait. It's with the Mets. I feel better now. And it's actually not quite a done deal: "Santana has a full no-trade clause and can veto the deal unless he gets a contract extension, and it's expected that the Mets and Santana will begin negotiating as soon as possible."

The Mets will give up 4 of their top 10 minor league prospects. Should be interesting in the next 3 or 4 years to see how much the Twins actually get out of the deal.

The article says that the Mets' offer is probably only the fourth best offer that Minnesota received, but they couldn't (or wouldn't) pull the trigger on any of those.

BTW, less than 4 weeks till pitchers and catchers report!!!
