By winning his second AL Cy Young Award in three years, Johan Santana set himself up for a big payday when his contract expires after the 2008 season. While the Twins ponder the possibility of negotiating an expensive extension with their left-hander this spring, they also will be preparing to rely on him even more given the uncertainty behind him in the rotation following Brad Radke's retirement and Francisco Liriano's elbow injury. These are potentially heavy burdens for a pitcher to carry, but if anyone in the major leagues can maintain his focus on the mound, it's probably Santana.
