Twins Decline Options On Ervin Santana, Logan Morrison
Oct. 30, 2018
.The Minnesota Twins declined their 2019 options on starting pitcher Ervin Santana and first baseman Logan Morrison on Tuesday, giving each $1 million buyouts and making them free agents. Both players had lost seasons in 2018 due to injuries. Santana only made five starts due to a finger injury that required surgery, and he wasn't good when he did pitch, posting an 8.03 ERA and 1.62 WHIP. The veteran right-hander won't be very attractive to fantasy owners no matter where he lands. Morrison hit a putrid .186/.276/.368 with 15 home runs and 39 RBI in 95 games after posting a career year in Tampa (38 home runs, 85 RBI) in 2017. Morrison isn't as bad as his 2018 season suggests, but he's highly unlikely to reach his high-water mark of 2017 ever again.

Ervin Santana Doubtful to Pitch Again This Season

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Ervin Santana (finger) will undergo an MRI on his middle finger on Wednesday. He was placed back on the disabled list Sunday after continuous discomfort in his finger. He made just five starts for the Twins this season and was awful. There is a good chance that Santana does not return again this season.

Ervin Santana Bailed Out By Offense, Bullpen Thursday
Aug. 17, 2018
Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Ervin Santana allowed seven runs in four innings to the Detroit Tigers on Thursday, but he was able to escape with a no-decision thanks to the firepower his offense brought and the lockdown ability his bullpen showed. Santana was battered around for seven hits, and he finished with three walks against just two strikeouts. The Twins ended up winning 15-8. Since returning from injury, Santana just hasn't been the same pitcher he was during his 2017 All-Star campaign. In five starts this season, he is 0-1 with an astounding 8.03 ERA. He is not a fantasy option as long as he continues this way. He will get the weak Chicago White Sox next, but it will be hard to trust him after a performance like this.

Ervin Santana Allows Five Runs Friday
Aug. 10, 2018
Minnesota Twins right-hander Ervin Santana struggled with the home run ball yet again on Friday. Starting against the Detroit Tigers, Santana allowed five runs in six innings of work with four of those runs coming on a pair of two-run homers. Since being activated from the disabled list, Santana has struggled to keep the ball in the park in his three starts, coughing up six home runs in 20 2/3 innings of work. Overall, Santana has a 0-1 record, 6.53 ERA, and 14 strikeouts this year. He missed the first four months of the season after having finger surgery in February. He can remain on waivers until he shows he is in midseason form.
Ervin Santana Allows Three Runs Against Royals Sunday
Aug. 6, 2018
Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Ervin Santana allowed three runs on seven hits against the Kansas City Royals on Sunday. He struck out three batters in a no-decision, but the Twins bullpen was able to hold on for a 6-5 victory. Since returning from the disabled list, Santana hasn't prevented less than three runs from being scored in four games started. He hasn't made it past the fifth inning, nor has he struck out more than five. It's safe to say he's still trying to find himself after such a long absence, but other than a spot start here and there, Santana doesn't have much fantasy value outside of very deep, American League-only formats.

Ervin Santana Allows Four Runs In Five Innings Monday
Jul. 31, 2018
Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Ervin Santana only lasted 5 1/3 innings on Monday against the Cleveland Indians. He struggled early, allowing a home run to third baseman Jose Ramirez in the very first inning. The long ball would go onto haunt him for the rest of his outing, as he allowed two more home runs and an RBI double. In the end, he allowed four runs on six hits, walked two and struck out just one batter. It was his first home start since returning from the disabled list. Santana will need some time to find his bearings again after such a long absence, so right now his value is set to American League-only, deep leagues. The veteran has also been linked to trade rumors, so it will be interesting to see if the Twins make a deal before the deadline.

Ervin Santana Making Home Debut on Monday
Jul. 30, 2018
Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Ervin Santana will make his 2018 home debut in Minnesota on Monday. Santana made his 2018 debut against the Blue Jays on Wednesday, but allowed three runs on seven hits in a no decision. It's impossible to judge a pitcher off one start, but Santana did look a little rusty against Toronto. However, he's still worth a look in DFS on Monday. He is also worth owning in most fantasy leagues at the moment.
Yankees Have Talked To Twins About Ervin Santana
Jul. 26, 2018
Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Ervin Santana just returned to game action from the disabled list on July 25, but it seems he already has suitors lining up for him. According to Jon Heyman, the New York Yankees have inquired about Santana's availability. The Yankees have been engaged in talks for a starting pitcher — especially the Toronto Blue Jay's J.A. Happ — as well as others. Santana is the newest name on the list. The veteran returned to face those same Blue Jays and allowed three runs over five innings. Santana is only one year removed from a 16-8, 3.28 ERA All-Star campaign. The Twins have been considered sellers, but it remains to be seen if they instead try their luck at beating out the Cleveland Indians for the American League Central lead. If Santana were to join the Yankees though, his fantasy value would skyrocket.

Ervin Santana Tosses Five Solid Innings In Return
Jul. 25, 2018
Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Ervin Santana wasn't in line for the win on Wednesday against the Toronto Blue Jays but pitched well enough to help his team to a 12-6 victory. Santana made his first start since having surgery on his finger back in February. In total, he pitched five innings, allowed three runs on seven hits, walked one and struck out five batters. Once Santana exited the game though, things got a little crazy and the game went into extra innings, tied at six. The Twins ultimately went on to win thanks to a six-run 11th inning. Santana might be good for a spot start here and there for daily fantasy players while being worth an add in deeper leagues. That said, outside of deeper, mixed leagues, his value diminishes due to the question marks that arise whenever a pitcher returns from injury. Santana will face the rival Cleveland Indians next, where it will be interesting to see how he performs against a team of that caliber.

Ervin Santana To Return To Twins' Rotation, Start Wednesday
Jul. 22, 2018
Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Ervin Santana (finger) will be reinstated from the 60-day disabled list on Wednesday to start against the Blue Jays, per MLB.com's Rhett Bollinger. The 35-year-old has been a useful fantasy rotation piece for the past few seasons, posting a low 3's ERA with a low 7's K/9 rate on between 181 and 211 IP. Those who have stashed Santana to this point will be rewarded soon, and he is worth a look in 12-team leagues or deeper if he is still on the waiver wire.

Ervin Santana Shines In Rehab Start On Friday

Minnesota Twins pitcher Ervin Santana (finger) put together a strong rehab start on Friday, throwing six innings of one run ball while allowing just two hits and striking out one. Santana has yet to make his 2018 debut, but should be close to returning following this outing. When he does return, Santana could be a sneaky add off of the waiver wire. He is coming off of an All-Star season in which he held a 16-8 record with a 3.28 ERA and a 167/61 K/BB ratio.

Ervin Santana Headed To Rochester For Rehab Start

Minnesota Twins right-hander Ervin Santana (finger) will head to Triple-A Rochester to make his next rehab start. Team manager Paul Molitor said it was "not a consideration" to have Santana called up to the big leagues to make a start on Sunday. Santana has allowed three runs in seven innings over his rehab stint, which up until this point has been spent in the Twins' lower levels. The veteran hurler had finger surgery in February and has been on the disabled list all season. He could return to Minnesota's rotation after the All-Star break.

Ervin Santana Will Continue Rehab On Thursday
Jul. 4, 2018
Minnesota Twins right-hander Ervin Santana (finger) is scheduled to make his second rehab start on Thursday. The veteran pitcher is expected to throw either 60 pitches or four innings this time for the Class A Fort Myers Miracle. Santana has missed the entire season after having surgery on the middle finger of his pitching hand this past February. He posted an excellent season for the Twins in 2017, winning 16 games with a 3.28 ERA, 1.13 WHIP, and 167 strikeouts in 33 starts. He should rejoin the Twins rotation after the All-Star break and is worth a look if he's on waivers in your fantasy league.
