Santana Would Consider Waiving No Trade

At MLB Trade Rumors they write about Johan Santana and him possibly giving up his no trade rights:


Santana could theoretically strategically select the 12 teams most likely to trade for him if he really wanted to stay in Minnesota for one more season.

That doesn't seem likely, however. Based on this article from La Velle E. Neal III, Santana would likely give up his no-trade protection if A) the acquiring team was a contender and B) he was compensated $1-2MM to give up his rights.
