Big Papi: Sox won't get Santana
It wasn't the holiday message Red Sox fans were looking for. Although David Ortiz' infectious smile and trademark hugs were spread throughout Gillette Stadium during his visit to the Patriots' game against Miami yesterday, the message he delivered regarding the possible arrival of Johan Santana was anything but joyous for many of the Sox faithful. "No," Ortiz said when asked if he thought his good friend, Santana, would be traded to the Red Sox. "I was (following it) for a minute, but I guess they stopped. They don't want him to go. (Minnesota) already gave Boston too many good things already. Me, and now Santana? No way."

I just wish both of them would shut the h.e.ll up...as if either of them have ANY idea on whether or not the Twins will trade Santana to the Red Sox....and his whole c.oc.ky statment about how since the Twins gave Minnesota Boston is ridiculous since Ortiz was RELEASED by the Twins not TRADED to the Twins...and he was released cause he was nowhere near the player he turned into when he was with the Twins...maybe ORTIZ THINKS he was traded...

Curt, and then Ortiz...
It's only a matter of time before Manny speaks up:
"It really doesn't matter if we get Javier or not, because we can win just with Beckett, Papi, and me. We don't even really need anyone else. We could use Pokey Reese again, but that's all. I don't even think we should go for Javier. Lets get Nick Punto!!"

He was clearly being facetious.
The odds that the Sox get Santana before Spring Training are still good. Why? No one else wants anything to do with the Twins and their demands. No, the Sox haven't given in to their demands either, but the Sox have not refused to take their offers off the table (although I haven't heard much lately about the Ellsbury package). Unless the Yanks make it happen or another team gets involved, the Twins choices come down to the Red Sox' offer or compensation picks - not a tough decision if you ask me. Go Sox!

Yeah, they were asking Papi the same questions as he was cheering on KG at the Celtics game on Friday. He's clearly just joking. They keep putting those guys on tv every time they do the "From Minnesota to Beantown", I swear it's ESPN's favorite graphic.He's a great guy, but Shilling is just a cumdumpster that dreams about Roger Clemen's Cy Youngs.
