Twins Still Have Offer Out To Ervin Santana
The Twins still have an offer out to free agent starting pitcher Ervin Santana, Mike Berardi** of the Pioneer Press writes. It's unclear how much the Twins' offer to Santana is worth. Berardi** **tes that, earlier in the offseason, the Twins offered Matt Garza three years and $42MM with a vesting option for a fourth year, although 1500ESPN.com's Darren Wolfson tweets that the offer to Santana is significantly less. Earlier on Sunday, Jon Heyman of CBS Sports reported that the Twins had made a three-year deal to Santana, but that Santana preferred a one-year deal if he could **t get a deal in the four-year, $50MM range.

The Twins appear to be continuing to try to upgrade a rotation that struggled in 2013. They've already added Ricky **lasco and Phil Hughes on multiyear deals this offseason, while re-signing Mike Pelfrey to a two-year deal. The Twins' top 2014 draft choice, **. 5 overall, is protected, so they would only have to give up the **. 46 overall pick if they signed Santana.
