According to a report in the Minneapolis Star-Tribune, Twins officials expect Johan Santana to be traded before the start of spring training.
Still, Twins officials privately say they think Santana will be traded before spring training opens next month.
For now, the Twins and the three most interested Santana suitors — the Mets, Yankees and Red Sox — are regrouping, trying to decide how far beyond their comfort zones they will go to close this deal. The end result might leave some Twins fans gasping for breath.
It’s possible the Twins will trade Santana without landing one player who is universally recognized as a big help in 2008.
Lately, the Twins have seemed most intrigued with the Mets’ offer.
Like the second part of the title of this post says, I’ll believe it when I see it (the trade).
This soap opera has grown very tiresome. If they’re going to trade him, let them get it done already.

I agree with you BHG, hence the reason why I made the picture. I think a lot of people agree with you, including myself, that it’s time for this soap opera to end.
