[新聞]Ellsbury offered for Santana
Seeking to land left-hander, Red Sox up ante to Twins
By Ian Browne / MLB.com
BOSTON -- The battle for Twins ace left-hander Johan
Santana is gaining more intrigue by the day. The latest
wrinkle is that the Red Sox might now be willing to include
top center-field prospect Jacoby Ellsbury in their offer to
Minnesota as a response to the Yankees recently putting
stud pitching prospect Phil Hughes in their package.
ESPN.com -- citing sources -- reported Sunday that Boston
had backed off its refusal to include Ellsbury. But if
Ellsbury is to be in the deal, the Red Sox will pull back
left-handed starter Jon Lester.
With the Winter Meetings set to begin in Nashville, Tenn.,
on Monday, the Santana sweepstakes figure to take center
stage.
The Twins will have to weigh which offer entices them more:
Hughes, center fielder Melky Cabrera and an additional
prospect from the Yankees or Boston's offer, which could
include Ellsbury, Minor League shortstop Jed Lowrie and a
pitching prospect such as Justin Masterson or Michael
Bowden.
There are other teams who are also in the mix, including
the Angels, Dodgers and Mets, although at this point, the
Red Sox and the Yankees -- rivals always -- seem to be the
most heavily involved.
The Yankees and Red Sox -- who traditionally have the two
highest payrolls in the Major Leagues -- would also seem to
be in the best position to sign Santana to a contract
extension if a trade can be worked out.
Santana, who will be 29 next season, has a no-trade clause
and is all but certain to seek a contract extension before
agreeing to be moved.
Several reports have stated that Santana could seek as much
as $150 million over six years.
Ellsbury rose to prominence for the Red Sox down the
stretch in 2007, filling in for the injured Manny Ramirez
and hitting .361 in September. Beginning with Game 6 of the
American League Championship Series, Ellsbury supplanted
Coco Crisp in center field and the Red Sox didn't lose
another game. Ellsbury stepped up in the World Series,
going 7-for-16.
The Red Sox were trying to trade Crisp instead of Ellsbury,
but the Twins repeatedly rebuffed those attempts.
At the end of the day, the Twins could always mull over all
the offers and decide they are better off keeping Santana.
