The Minneapolis Star-Tribune says the Mets “might be the best fit” for the Twins if Johan Santana is traded.

Joe Christensen writes, “They have the greatest need. They have the money to sign Santana. And they play in the National League, where he’s less likely to haunt the Twins.

“The players the Mets would send the Twins aren’t household names. There’s no Jose Reyes or David Wright. The offers aren’t perfect.

“But it’s become abundantly clear the Twins won’t be able to make the perfect trade here.”
