As reported by SI.com's Jon Heyman, it is not surprising the Yankees and Red Sox are at the forefront of the negotiations. The Twins have stated their demands:
- Red Sox bright prospect Jacoby Ellsbury plus either Clay Buchholz or Jon Lester. Coco Crisp remains in the mix.
- Yankees' Melky Cabrera plus one from the following trio - Chamberlain, Hughes or Kennedy.
The Red Sox appear to have a strong rotation, so to speak. My personal opinion is that while Coco Crisp would be easy to let go, Ellsbury might be another matter altogether. The rookie performed in the World Series and it might be interesting to see how he develops if given a chance to remain with the World Champions. I am not sure if the Red Sox really need Santana that badly.
