Twins lower demands for Santana

The Twins have decided not to demand Ian Kennedy as the "respectable third prospect" in their deal with the Yankees, instead choosing to ask for both pitcher Alan Horne and outfielder Austin Jackson. The Yankees don't appear to be biting, and talks have come to a standstill at this point. This leaves the Red Sox as the clear favorites to land Santana, and apparently the Red Sox and the Twins are close to a deal, presumably centered around lefty pitcher Jon Lester.

The Yankees did manage to get a trade done today, trading Tyler Clippard to the Nationals for Jonathan Albaladejo.
