Once they sort out the Corey Koskie and Jacque Jones situations, the Twins likely will sit down and try to hammer out a multiyear deal with Johan Santana.
Santana will be eligible for free agency following the 2006 season, so he might not be interested in anything more than a two-year deal. For 2005, he's due to more than triple his 2004 salary of $1.6 million in arbitration. Dec. 11 - 1:32 pm et From rotoworld.
I am just posting this about sanatana for all of those who believe you can only double your salary in arbitration.
