Are The Twins Holding Out For Both Outfield Prospects?

At Rotoworld they write about the Twins and them holding out on the Mets to get both Carlos Gomez and Fernando Martinez:


ESPN's Jayson Stark says the Twins are telling teams that they're willing to hold on to Johan Santana into spring training as they attempt to get the package of players they want.

No one really has any new info on the Santana talks, but that's not going to stop them from posting stories. Stark mentions the Mariners as still being in contact with the Twins, but he doesn't think they're a serious suitor because of Santana's desire to play on the East Coast. Similar to what others have reported, he believes the Mets offered Carlos Gomez, two of their top young pitchers and a fourth prospect for Santana. However, the Twins are holding out for getting both Gomez and Fernando Martinez in the same package.

not really because santan would sign atleast a 7 year extension and then we would have a staff ace for a long time to come and pedro for at least one more season...we could win it all!!!!!
