Source: Jays made ​​an offer to Santana, "well below expectations"

[flafson]

So he would rather give up on half the season?

Imagine how long it takes him to catch up to form with the rest of the league, might give up tons of home runs.

It's probably a negotiating ploy. On the other hand, there was that report that the Jays offered him $27M over 3 years. I would think that's not far off what he should expect, maybe $30M over 3 years, unless another team bids against itself which has been known to happen.

8M for a full season or the possibility of 8M for a half season and stats that don't look as nice... Does he seriously think he's going to massively improve on multiyear offers later in the season?

Santana isn't a fit here, whoooooooo geeeeeeeeeeffffs a faaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwk! Losing out on Capuano bothers me much more.

 

Jay, sent you a PM about opening week.
