Seriously, unbelievable deal. For Gomez, Guerra, Humber, Mulvey. Oh my god. No Martinez. Fucking amazing.

It's pending a contact extension. They have a 72 hour window. It's not a done deal from a contractual standpoint, but they have agreed to a trade, and now it's up to the contract. Unbelievable.

I checked ESPN just now and they reported (within the hour) that the Mets have the best offer, but a trade has not been agreed upon. Do you have a link?

It's on foxsports.com, and reported on WFAN.

Lastings isn't that great. I love Church, and Schneider is an upgrade over Lo Duca. Johan Santana. Wow.

love it for the Mets... glad to see us keep F-Mart.
I'm a little concerned about trading Guerra, have heard good things about him and he played in the futures game. But he's very raw so it's not as if he'd make any impact anytime soon.

I gotta say though, the Twins really lowered their asking price... they almost seem desperate. I was shocked not to hear Martinez's name called when I heard it first announced.

Good to see Santana out of the AL.
Gotta think he'll dominate even more with the thinner lineups in the NL.
Maybe #1 fantasy pick this year.

Twins are fucking retarded
how did they pass on the yanks/red-sox deals for this?

twins are stupid to take the mets deal. Yanks supposedly offered them Hughes and Melky plus a couple other prospects, why would you not take that? This is sick of course for the Mets, should be cool to see him in a mets jersey IMO.

Post by Phoenix Phil on Jan 29, 2008 22:44:23 GMT -5
i don't think Hughes/Melky + whatever is that much better than what the Mets offered. And at that point the Twins were using the Yanks and Sox to try and drive up the price.

did anyone think that the Twins didn't want to trade Santana to the American League? It sure makes sense that they would deal with an National League team

Hughes hasn't been offered since December, and that isn't a guarantee either. They held out until nearly February to try and get Hughes back involved, and the Yankees refused to do so. The Twins didn't take the Mets' offer over Hughes.
