SP Johan Santana

[Porter]

He won't resign with me, so the risk of acquiring an ace failed.

I am only looking for PM Offers. No AIM offers will be accepted at the moment. Its easier for me to counter offers.

I am looking for no less than.
A 24-28 yr old ML Starter with no less than 8-8-8's or a Big Time Infield Bat
A 5.0 Spect Hitter
A 5.0 Spect Pitcher

I do think this guy is worth at least that. If he makes more money, I would need cash back in return to soften the blow of what he can potentiall make.

[DiamondDave]

All 3 of those... hmmm... dunno if I could swing all 3 things in return... but I have definate interest... I'll PM an offer later

[bjd2933]

I don't have exactly what you're looking for, but sent a preliminary offer. It may not even be enough, but I'd still hesitate to do it... I think I'm just a little desperate right now.

[Halladay_is_God]

Toronto interested

[mntwinsfan]

Figures.. You cant sign him and I get ass raped in the deal. Or so it seams.


Porter I am happy with the deal but If you get that much in return I got raped.

[Providence A's]

good luck getting that much for a FA-to-be that may not sign

[Kingdom]

I'd give that, but I'm a team on the verge of being under .500 ...

If a team want a Ace pitcher, that is top 10 in QS, W, ER, IP, R/9, K/9, OPP BA, WHIP, BABIP and not to mention ERA? I'm sure someone will pay.

[Providence A's]

I wouldn't if I thought I might not sign him...that's just what happened with you. also, one could wait for FA and just pay a shit load of money instead of losing talent for him.

[OrioleMagic]

Porter, Don't make a move without talking to me. Colorado has what you want. I am not sure I would give it up w/o assurances of a long term deal under a predetermined amount of money. I may agree to a trade and then a follow-up trade that has players based on what Santana does with me. I'll check him out and make an offer soon, but I will want a quick response in return for my aggressiveness. Even if it is a resounding NO!

[Slyder]

I got Porter's approval to talk to Santana's agent and as soon as I said who I was he hung up and blocked my phone number . LOL, gotta love being Kansas City Royals .

[OrioleMagic]

Porter, I gotta move Helton before I can talk Santana. If Helton is an option coming back to you... LMK I am willing to include Roe or Reynolds in the right deal...

[Porter]

To let anyone know straight up, I will take my time in making a decision with a deal, I would wait until after the draft to make a deal. I have gotten 4 offers so far and I'm evaluating all offers. Those who have sent offers should have gotten a reply. If you have any offer near that area just send it in.

[Porter]

Well his desire for a winner was Average, and my team wasn't winning enough. Thats why.

[nick]

I might throw an offer your way porter... I'm thinking about it. You say you won't deal him till after the deadline atleast?
