Jays will pay Chipper Jones 2012 salary to make this an even money trade.
Thanks for the fast negotiations Dan.
We do this trade to get a solid MI in Yunel and a prospect the organization has been keeping an eye on for Ruben Tejada, who will be sorely missed, and a couple of players deemed expendable. With FA so crazy and Brandon Phillips refusing to sign an extension the past season, the Jays were in dire need of a solid player to man the MI.
