Total Contracts for the current season do not match and would cause the Giants to go over the salary cap. Braves total is $6.0m and the Giants total is $7.5m. In order to make it work, the Braves agreed to pay $1.5m of Roy Oswalt's contract in 2012. Giants will pay all of Oswalt's salary in 2013. Additionally, since Chipper Jones is retiring, the Giants agreed to pay $1.5m of his 2013 salary. That is the Cash Exchange I listed. There is no cash exchange from any previous years for Chipper. The Braves are to pay $2.0m of Chipper's 2013 salary.This should clear up any misunderstanding. Again, sorry for any confusion.
Giants need to drop a player.
Giants drop:OF Ramirez, Manny, $1.5m (2012)Salary cap obligation for 2012 is $1.0mThis will also get my roster to the legal limit.
