You hear some stuff about how the Twins might try to hold onto Santana. It makes no sense to me. They aren't in a position to take the AL Central and the compensatory picks they will get if they keep him are nothing compared to what they can get back in a trade.

It was looking like Oak and Bal would wait until Santana was traded but I also am wondering if they don't act sooner. AZ keeps getting brought up with Haren. It could be that Beane actually likes AZ's package or that he's using them to get what he really wants. Anyways, some of the the players for Haren and Bedard are also players for Kudora (Az is a possible match). Once Kudora signs, he loses a potential trade partner.

I'm surprised the Brewers are going to pay Gagne so much ($10M?). BAD MOVE on their part.

I think $5M for Bradley is a great deal, even if he misses some time. He should rake in Texas.
