Wolfson: Starting pitching on the Twins' radar

[diehardtwinsfan]

You know how you feel about Nolasco?

 

I feel that way about Santana. Times two.

 

I think he's going to be a dreadful signing. Too old, too inconsistent, coming off a very good year. He's going to be a bad value.

 

I'd rather give four years to Hughes than four years to Santana.

 

The only difference between Santana and Nolasco in my opinion is the price and I think Santana has more upside to go with the risk. I don't necessarily disagree with you, which is why I posted my question. Santana is going to get 4-5 years at 15-18ish per year from someone, and that someone will give up a second rounder or a late first round pick. I think the word here is trepidation. I'd rather go after Tanaka or Hughes.
