CBS Sports claim things are pretty much at a stand-still.

The Yankees appeared set to pull out of trade talks for Johan Santana unless the Twins were prepared to strike a deal late Monday night. New Twins GM Bill Smith didn't seem concerned about the deadline. Of course, baseball teams let deadlines pass all the time only to resume talks later. New York offered pitcher Phil Hughes, center fielder Melky Cabrera and a mid-level prospect. The Red Sox are thought to have offered Jon Lester, Clay Buchholz or Jacoby Ellsbury -- but only one of them -- as part of a deal. While the Yankees pressed for a decision, Red Sox general manager Theo Epstein didn't express any time pressure. He said there was no expiration date on any of his trade talks.

So far no one's made an extra effort to trade for him.
