In Newsday, citing ‘a source with knowledge of the situation,’ Kat 
O’Brien writes that the Yankees do not expect to acquire Johan Santana.
According to the source, ‘I don’t see it happening with us. We pulled out in Nashville, and we haven’t put an offer back on the table.’
…whatever…i mean, these reports about the Yankees are starting to feel like the hokey-pokey…seriously, i believe nothing, when it comes to how the Yankees do business…however, unless they’re willing to include Philip Hughes, which so far they are not, the Yankees are out of the picture…
The Mets signed RHP Juan Padilla to a minor-league contract and issued him a non-roster invitation to spring training, according to Ken Davidoff in Newsday.
At his blog for the Daily News last week, Adam Rubin wrote that Padilla ‘probably won’t be ready for Opening Day.’
In 24 games for the Mets in 2005, Padilla was 3-1 record and 1.49 ERA, while striking out 17 and walking 13.
