Well welcome to FGM first 4 team deal that I have seen...

:NYM: get
Freeman

:CIN: gets
Montero

:SF: gets
Belt

:CHC: gets
Trout
Minor
Richards
Crosby

The :NYM: move Montero, Richards and Minor for Freeman. Freeman is a favorite of mine and well I just dont believe in Minor anymore.

Mets Approve.

The Cubs, Mets, Reds & Giants would like to announce a 4-team, 7-player deal. What started out as a simple discussion between two owners, turned into a massive deal involving, 4 owners and a lot of PM's. It took a lot of communication to get this one done, so I'd like to thank Corey, Dan and Ernesto for keeping the lines open, and being decisive and fair. It would not have gotten done otherwise.

CUBS receive
OF Trout, Mike, $2.5m (2014) (from SF)
P Minor, Mike, $0.5m (P-2013) (from NYM)
P Crosby, Casey, $0.5m (P-n/a) (from CIN)
P Richards, Garrett, $0.5m (P-n/a) (From NYM)

I hate to give up Freeman, he was the cornerstone of my rebuilding franchise, but the ability to move him for some much needed quality depth was too much to refuse, and once Trout (an obvious favorite of mine) entered the equation, I just couldn't pass this up. I receive an up-and comer in Trout, a potential top of the rotation starter, and some real strong organizational pitching depth.

NYM receive
CI Freeman, Freddie, $0.5m (P-n/a) (from CHC)

One of the best young 1B in the game, that's all that needs to be said. Mets trade some quality prospects but with their depth they were able to work from a position of strength to get a player they coveted.

CIN receives
C Montero, Jesus, $0.5m (P-n/a) (from CHC, via NYM)

Dan likes sluggers. That is all.

SF receives
CI-OF Belt, Brandon, $0.5m (P-2014) (from CHC, via CIN)

The Giants call home another one of their favorite sons. A versatile CI-OF with a strong bat and all the tools. 2012 should be a break-out year.

Mets, Reds and Giants to confirm.

[Dan Wood]

Jesus walks to the Reds...the reds are now forced to increase the clubhouse buffet budget to feed Montero and Butler. Reds accept, I am a huge believer in Montero's abilities.

[Flash]

Giants confirm.  Sorry to give up Mike Trout, but I'm very happy to get Brandon Belt.
