The Twins are reportedly upset with the recent comments made by Hank Steinbrenner concerning a deadline for trade negotiations for Johan Santana.When asked if he thought the comments constituted tampering, the official replied, “We’re not happy. We’ll deal with this internally.'’It's absurd that anyone is even suggesting tampering charges. Considering that the Yankees didn't negotiate directly with Santana, there is no tampering. Bad negotiating tactics perhaps, but not tampering.
The Twins are also upset by reports that Santana gave them an ultimatum regarding what teams he would go to. Santana's agent, Peter Greenberg, contacted the Minnesota Star Tribune to deny the alleged 2 team demand made by his client. Greenberg, however, would not comment on Santana's demand to be dealt for the start of the 2008 season. Source
