Note: Schilling Expects Johan in Boston
During an appearance on sports radio WEEI in Boston this morning, Curt Schilling said he thinks that the Red Sox will eventually acquire Johan Santana from the Twins.
…as i said yesterday, people connected to the Mets still seem positive, though i keep hearing that they’ll continue to ‘monitor the situation,’ which hardly invokes confidence if you ask me…at the same time, people around santana, who prefers to pitch for the Mets, are back to seeing Boston as a likely destination…so, there is a definite disconnect there…
…nevertheless, the way i keep hearing it, the Twins want Carlos Gomez and four pitchers…however, yesterday at SI.com, Jon Heyman wrote that the Twins want both gomez and Fernando Martinez, plus three pitchers, which the Mets are unwilling to do…
Meanwhile, at his blog for the Daily
News, Adam Rubin recalls a story he wrote while in Nashville that lists Aaron Heilman as the fourth pitcher in question.
…i just assumed they were pitching ‘prospects,’ not some one from the major-league roster…but, again, it was relayed to me as just ‘four pitchers,’ so who knows…maybe it is heilman, like rubin suggests…
Yesterday, MetsBlog asked if the Mets should trade Pelfrey, Humber, Mulvey, Guerra and Gomez to the Twins for Santana, who will also require a seven-year contract, and only 58 percent of the 3,700 respondents said, ‘Yes, make the trade.’
…however, if heilman is among the four pitchers, that is a very, very different story…
…so, let’s try this again…
