Sounds like it's probably just details being hammered out. Maybe the money changes slightly, but I'm guessing it ends up within $5M of the announced extension value. (Still not bad money if you can get it.)

You're basing that on what, exactly?

Santana got injured I'm guessing. The best move the Twins could have done is not trade him and let him walk for picks. They did a terrible job scouting those prospects. Anyone with a brain would have seen how horrendous Gomez's flaws were and the no-upside of the pitchers involved in the deal. There is a reason everyone on the board was screaming, even worse when we actually go to watch those guys.
