Johan Santana to the Mets

The Mets have agreed to a trade with the Minnesota Twins to acquire Johan Santana for four prospects, pending the left-hander working out an extension with New York, sources told ESPN’s Peter Gammons.

The Mets have been granted a 48 to-72-hour window to work out a new contract with Santana.

The trade agreement was first reported by USA Today on its Web site.
