A little twist that might see the Twins keep Santana?...


Minnesota Twins GM Bill Smith was very disappointed to learn that pitching prospect Jose Mijares broke his left (pitching) elbow in a one-car crash in Venezuela when he fell asleep at the wheel the Boston Globe reported.

Mijares is a 40-man roster player and throws hard (sound familiar?). He was 5-3 with a 3.54 ERA in Double A New Britain last season and had a 1.86 ERA in 37 games in the winter league in Venezuela.

Last year, it was Francisco Liriano's Tommy John surgery, and with a Johan Santana deal looming, Mijares was a young pitcher the Twins looked forward to having on the horizon.
