The latest on free agent Ervin Santana

Free agent starter Ervin Santana has yet to agree to a contract this offseason. Today, things between Santana and a handful of teams seemed to be bringing Santana to a deal. Here is what we know:

• (Saturday) Earlier on Saturday, it was reported that Santana had decided that he would be signing a $14 million deal with an AL club, to whom many thought could be either the Toronto Blue Jays or Baltimore Orioles. 
• (Saturday) The Blue Jays were that team, according to reports. However, Santana wanted a better deal before accepting Toronto's deal, and gave teams a 5:00 pm deadline. 
• (Saturday) The Orioles offered a similar deal to the Blue Jays, reportedly offering $14 million plus incentives. Santana was presumably deciding between the two clubs.
• (Saturday) Jon Heyman of CBS Sports said that Santana was in discussions with the Blue Jays, Orioles, and one NL team, which a source confirmed to Cover Those Bases was the Phillies (Nick Cafardo of the Boston Globe originally had that the Phillies were in discussions with the right-hander). 
• (Saturday) At approximately 5:05 pm, Jon Morosi of CBS Sports tweeted that Santana had not in fact set a deadline, and that he could wait "days" before signing with a team.
• (7:09 AM) The Twins have emerged as a contender and have offered Ervin Santana a contract, according to media reports. It's unknown how interested the Twins are, which is why beliefs are still for the Blue Jays and Orioles signing Santana.
• (4:15 PM) The Braves could also make a run at Ervin Santana, reports David O'Brien of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Kris Medlen left Sunday's Spring Training game with a forearm strain. The Braves' interest could increase if Medlen is found to have a serious injury. In addition to Medlen's injury, Brandon Beachy left today's Spring Training start with bicep tightness. 

No matter where Santana signs, the Kansas City Royals will get the 28th pick in this year's draft, assuming that Santana will sign before the draft, which is scheduled for June 5. Stay tuned as the news rolls in on the latest on Ervin Santana.
