So Long Santana

Posted by Mark McCray |

VIA ESPN:

The Yankees' desire Monday to turn their attention away from the two-time Cy Young winner leaves Boston and the New York Mets as Minnesota's trade partners, the official told Marchand.

"We're not desperate, so we're not going to chase anything," Steinbrenner told the New York Daily News in early January.

Multiple reports have speculated the Yankees' offer includes pitcher Hughes, outfielder Melky Cabrera, pitching prospect Jeff Marquez and another prospect.

When asked about the Yankees' package of players, Steinbrenner would not comment but did tell the Daily News that "it's still the best one. And let's face it, we're the best able to handle the kind of [nine-figure extension] Santana will be after."
Is this another one of Hanks tricky strategic moves like he pulled with A-Rod-- or is this for real? We won't know for sure until Johan is either in a Red Sox, Mets, or Twins uniform.

Don't count the Yankees down and out yet but it is pretty safe to assume--for now-- it is so long Mr. Santana...
