Braves and Giants deal <Need confirmation from ATL SF and CIN>

[NickF]

Giants Trade:
OF Ibanez, Raul, $2m (2013)
CI Jones, Chipper, $3.5m (2013)
X-CI Jones, Chipper, Cash exchanged on Contract 2012, $1.5m in 2013
SP Vogelsong, Ryan, $0.5m (2012)

Braves trade:
OF Gomez, Carlos, $2m (2013)
P Kelly, Joe, $0.5m (2012)
MI Cowart, Kaleb, $0.5m (P-n/a)
CI-OF Austin, Tyler, $0.5m (P-n/a)
SP Gray, Sonny, $0.5m (P-n/a)
SP Oswalt, Roy, $3.5m (2014)
X-SP Oswalt, Roy, Cash exchanged on Contract 2012, $1.5m in 2013


braves do this trade to hopefully help make a playoff push this year (we were devestated when morrison was put on DL)... we give up some good youth, but we are going to take the risk... i hate losing gomez the most since he's a promising young OF, but i gotta take action now

thanks ernie

Giants confirm.

Giants are getting some young talent that will hopefully help in the future.  Didn't really want to give up Vogelsong, but it was going to be tough to re-sign and still fill the holes on my team.  Getting Oswalt helps me control my salary cap.  I also get to remove $2.0 million in 2013 by trading a retiring Chipper Jones.

I ask the TC to approve this trade.

Just noticed this, the cash exchange of $1.5m on Roy Oswalt's contract should be 2012, not 2013.  This will make the 2012 salaries match.
