Carlos wants to stay - I believe if the Indians make a reasonable offer we will keep him.
“I love it here,” said Santana, acquired by the Indians from the Dodgers on on July 26, 2008. “This is my home. I love Cleveland. They gave me the opportunity to play in the big leagues, to play every day.”
He calls Progressive Field, “My house. Everybody knows me and I know everybody here.”
But just how free agency unfolds for the Santana and the Indians is a mystery.
“This will be tough for me after the season, but I’m going to have to make a hard decision about my career,” said Santana. “I love it here. I don’t want to go anywhere. Everybody knows. My teammates know. The front office knows. But that’s not something I can control.”
Essentially if we and another team put up about the same offer then he will resign in Cleveland, but if someone else offers up a fair amount more he will sign elsewhere. Let’s see how the bidding goes for Santana!
