Tuesday's MLB notes

  • The Twins want Melky Cabrera and one of the Yankees' young pitchers for Johan Santana. Philip Hughes seems to be the most logical, as New York does not want to give up Joba Chamberlain and Minnesota will likely want more than Ian Kennedy. The Red Sox are also interested in Santana, but they would have to give up Clay Buchholz and Jacoby Ellsbury, something they are not willing to do.
  • It's looking less and less like Miguel Cabrera is going to get traded. About a week after the Dodgers backed out of the Cabrera sweepstakes, the Angels are now pulling out because the Marlins are asking for much more than the Halos are willing to pay.
  • The Dodgers are interested in Erik Bedard, but for some reason, the Orioles want to see what happens with Florida's Cabrera first before they try and trade the left-hander.
  • Minnesota is very interested in Coco Crisp, and it has been reported that the Twins and Red Sox are in serious discussions about the center-fielder.
  • Jose Guillen will probably wind up in either Kansas City or Baltimore.
