Johan Santana Sweeps : Latest Tuesday

Most of the talk flying around has dwindled to Boston being in the prime seat for Santana now. There have been a million stories circulating throughout the day on this, with many saying the deal has been done, naming different combinations of players involved.

Theo Epstein expects negotiations with the Twins to carry on throughout the night and that they are likely to finalize an agreement. The Twins have also stated that they hope to end the whole affair by tonight. Meanwhile, here's what you might have missed:

- Lester, Crisp, Ellsbury and Lowrie?
- Lester, Crisp, Lowrie and Masterson?
- 3 for 1 or 4 for 1?
- Yankees have no chance to best Boston's offer?
- Hank does not want Santana anymore and that's final
- it's Lester, Masterson and Kalish

It would be interesting to see what happens next if the Red Sox do get Santana. The Beckett contract renegotiations would become an issue.
