The Giants and Dbacks have reached a deal.
Giants receive:
OF Griffey Jr., Ken, $0.5m (2010) SP Halladay, Roy, $13.5m (2010) C Hernandez, Ramon, $3.5m (2010)
DBacks receive:
SP Francis, Jeff, $3.5m (2010) OF Cuddyer, Michael, $7.5m (2010) C Molina, Benji, $5.5m (2010) OF Cust, Jack, $2m (2010) - I will pay 1 mil salary
I did this deal to acquire Halladay. It is hard for me to pass up one of the best pitchers in baseball. Griffey is a throw in to even out salary. I am rebuilding my team and I am starting with my pitching staff. I feel this gives me one of the best pitching staffs now in the league. I feel I can replace my offensive guys.
DBacks to confirm.

Here is the deal between myself and Omar of the DBacks:
Giants receive:
OF Winn, Randy, $1m (2011) OF Byrnes, Eric, $10m (2010) SP Webb, Brandon, $7.5m (2013)
for
OF Bruce, Jay, $0.5m (P-2011) SP Zito, Barry, $18m (2013)
Jay Bruce was a big price to pay to get rid of Zito's contract. I took Winn and Byrnes strickly to match salary. It will give me the cap room I need to keep Mauer under the salary cap for next year. Webb is a good pitcher if he can return from injury back to form. I am confident Webb will. Even if he misses this year he is under contract for a few more years at a reasonable rate. Zito's contract was a big obstacle for me and I had to deal with Bruce for the breathing room. Good deal for both teams as Zito is still a serviceable pitcher and Bruce is a good outfielder. I would rather have Mauer and Webb then Bruce and Zito is all it came down to for me.

Here is the second deal I have agreed upon with 28 (Twins GM)
Giants receive:
SP Adam Wainwright $4.0m (2011)
for
SP Cain, Matt, $2.5m (2011) MI Counsell, Craig, $1m (2011) 1-15 SF
It was hard to give up my first round pick and Cain in the same deal but I believe Wainwright is a top tier pitcher. He has a good contract and there is no guarantee my first round pick will pan out. I think its a solid deal for both teams as the Twins get a capable starter in return, a good first round value and infield depth.

Here is the first deal I have struck with 28 (GM of Twins)
Giants receive:
C-Mauer, Joe, $10m (2013) 7 mil for 2010
for
CI Sandoval, Pablo, $0.5m (P-2012) C Posey, Buster, $0.5m (P-n/a)
I did this trade for one reason. To acquire the best catcher in baseball. Mauer's ability goes without saying. Sandoval is a good player and Posey has a ton of potential but it was too hard to pass up for Mauer. Getting the 7 million for this year will help me fit under the salary cap. I think this is a good move for both teams as we have these players under contract for a few years.
