Over at MLB Trade Rumors, the following trade has been rumored according to “a trusted New York sportswriter.”
Mets send Jose Reyes, Kevin Mulvey, and Hector Pellot to A’s
A’s send Bobby Crosby and Dan Johnson to Mets
A’s send Dan Haren to Twins
Twins send Johan Santana to Mets
Mets get Johan Santana, Bobby Crosby and Dan Johnson
A’s get Jose Reyes and Kevin Mulvey
Twins get Dan Haren and Hector Pellot
Wow, I mean, I dont even know where to start with this one. I can see both the A’s and Twins saying yes, but I have a hard time seeing the Mets pulling the trigger.

Can’t see this at all.
The first package shows the Twins pretty much trading Johan Santana for Dan Haren straight up. Makes entirely no sense.
Beat me to it Greg.
I can’t see them trading away Reyes.
I suggested Ryan Church or Carlos Gomez and Fernando Martinez in place of Reyes…
Thoughts?
Good point Gary, looking at this a second time around the Twins don’t seem to be getting much out of this, although the article does suggest Haren is the type of pitcher they would like to get in exchange for Santana.
It makes sense that they would get a Santana replacement, instead of just hitters.
It does but I cannot imagine that Twins fans up in Minnesota can be happy with this deal, especially with the packages they were being offered only a few days ago by the Yankees and Red Sox.
But is Coco and Lester + prospects really that good?
I still think the Yankees package was much, much, better…but I don’t think they want him to go to the Yanks, or the AL for that matter.
Well… in my humble opinion Santana isn’t worth Reyes alone!
Harebrained trades where we capitulate after saying particular stars are more or less non-negotiable will not help us achieve greatness. Reyes is ascendant, no doubt.
This rumor was busted.
MLBTR was tricked.
Another tall tale indeed. Cannot be true. Minaya has already stated Reyes was untouchable.
