Twins/A's/Mets Blockbuster in the works

Just got an incredible rumor from a trusted New York sportswriter. Stay with me, because this one's crazy. But rest assured that if the source wasn't good, I wouldn't post it.
Minnesota has initiated talks for a three-way blockbuster with the Twins and A's. Here's how it would go down:

Mets send Jose Reyes, Kevin Mulvey to A's
Mets send Hector Pellot to Twins
A's send Bobby Crosby and Dan Johnson to Mets
A's send Dan Haren to Twins
Twins send Johan Santana to Mets
Mets get Johan Santana, Bobby Crosby and Dan Johnson
A's get Jose Reyes and Kevin Mulvey
Twins get Dan Haren and Hector Pellot

The source says Haren is exactly the type of player the Twins want for Santana, a cheap frontline starter. It's known the Mets would hate to deal Reyes but they would get some value beyond Santana. Billy Beane is happy because he gets Reyes for one more year than he had Haren plus longtime favorite Mulvey. And, he's out of Crosby's contract.


Thoughts?

 

I'm happier with that than Santana going to Boston. The Mets will still figure out a way to fuck it up, they're the "Norv Turner" of baseball.

When are the Dodgers and Andruw Jones going to agree?

 

Andruw...

Dodgers have offered him a 2yr/$38 million contract.

Apparently Boras has stated that he has a team that is ready to give up 100 million for the Centerfielder. We know that isn't the Royals who have said to be interested.

 

yea, I knew about the offer. Wish he would accept. We can't afford another year with Pierre in center

 

Pierre hasn't been the same since he was traded away by florida,neither has castillo.
