Eric Simon has far too much time on his hands. He sleeps upside-down, keeps people as pets, and can be found on the internets at Amazin' Avenue or bothered directly at eric@metsgeek.com.

Peter Greenberg, Santana’s agent, admitted during a telephone conversation this week that he will need to discuss strategy with Santana soon on how to handle things if he is forced to report to camp with the Twins.
What Greenberg wouldn’t address is if Santana will refuse to waive his no-trade clause once he reports, but that possibility surely exists. It’s unclear if the Twins have been told that yet — but it appears that they have stepped up their efforts to make a deal happen before camp begins.

The Twins have been in contact with all three teams this week. Let’s begin with the Mets because they currently appear to have the best chance of landing Santana.
The Twins would like the Mets to add outfield prospect Fernando Martinez to a package of outfielder Carlos Gomez and pitchers Philip Humber, Kevin Mulvey and Deolis Guerra. According to persons familiar with talks, the Mets view Martinez as practically untouchable and might not include him even to replace Gomez in the deal. The clubs have talked about adding another player to the deal, such as pitcher Aaron Heilman. A report out of New York on Thursday had Ryan Church as a possible addition.

Nothing really new but it does say in the article that something has to happen by next weekend. At least the madness will then stop.

Shea were the geeks killing nady for not hitting with guys in scoring position? It could get ugly again

That seemed to be the big knock on him Wood….although is defense is less than stellar. I was really joking, but it could be a possibility. I think I read where SD would be interested in getting him back.

Ugh, my room change request was denied, and my roommate obviously did not go to France, so it looks like I’m stuck with her. Can anybody say something that will cheer me up?

Well, it could be worse. You could be married to a woman who since marriage has seen her team beat mine in every sport.

I would add F-mart in place of Gomez, if *that* would get the deal done.

redhawks win 7-2! first place in CCHA, probably #1 in the country when the new rankings come out.
