With Haren there will be a ton of teams and it wouldn't surprise me if Beane wants more for Haren then Minnesota wanted for Santana.
Yeah that's what I'm hearing also...and its what makes me a little doubtful that the Mets are gonna land Haren or Bedard. If the Sox do get Santana, and the Yanks elect to stand pat...the futures of Haren and Bedard are basically gonna be decided by the two LA teams who are duking it out for Miguel Cabrera (who is probably gonna cost 4 top prospects).

If the Angels get Cabrera, the Dodgers easily have the most to offer for a Haren or Bedard and can take their pick. But if the Dodgers get Cabrera, the Angels still need a bat more than they need pitching and would probably try to get Tejada or something. Plus after that you have to worry about the D-Backs wanting to get involved or the O's successfully locking Bedard up to an extension.
