Franchise GM: Completed Transactions / Giants - DBacks Trade
« on: July 12, 2010, 11:33:15 PM »
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.

Franchise GM: Completed Transactions / Giants - DBacks Trade

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.

Franchise GM: Completed Transactions / Giants - Twins Trade II
« on: June 30, 2010, 01:07:06 PM »
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.

Franchise GM: Completed Transactions / Giants - Twins Trade I
« on: June 30, 2010, 01:03:54 PM »
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.
