Read: Final offer Requested by Twins
Marty Noble at MLB.com cites ‘a person with firsthand knowledge of the club’s dealings with the Twins’ as saying they have requested a ‘best offer’ from the Mets.
Noble goes on to write…
“The Mets can’t know if the same request has been made of other clubs with interest in Santana or, for that matter, whether other clubs have maintained an interest in the two-time Cy Young Award winner.”
…with how much is at stake, i’d be surprised if the Mets had been 
giving anything less than their best offer by now...
Twins beat writer Kelly Theiser adds the following in another piece for MLB.com
“The Twins have stepped up their efforts in the last 48 hours to get the teams involved in trade talks to make their last and best offers.
If the Twins feel that none of the offers is acceptable, they could prepare to head to Spring Training with Santana and wait to see if a better market develops for the left-hander.”
…it’s looking more and more like the Twins have finally committed to bringing the saga to an end very soon, one way or another – stay tuned…
