Giants reasoning: What can I say? I hate that Loney was paid $5 million just to be released, and I also like getting rid of my other two IRL free agents. The players I get help fill out my roster, and the money I get back helps me be back under the cap with a bit of wiggle room. I don't like giving up two first rounders, but I am personally not a big fan of the amateur draft. I especially believe this because I want to contend in the short term.

Accepted.
Rationale: Yes, I had to take on a couple awful contracts, but I just landed two #1 draft picks for a bunch of veterans (decent to above average vets, but still vets). I believe I have one of the best farm systems already, but it needs some depth and Josh doesn't seem to value draft picks like I do. This makes sense for me, as I have no chance at competing this year... My squad is built for a 2018 and beyond. By that time, Loney will be paid through Medicare.

Josh, I believe I have to give you $400K for the life of Rivera's contract (not just for 3 years)... More money for you. And, you left off Osich, the heart of the deal.
And to make it easier for Justin:
Braves trade: John Lackey - $5.6M through 2018 (+$600K per year towards Lackey's contract) Ichiro Suzuki - $1M through 2016 (+$1M completely paid) Aaron Hill - $500K through 2016 (+$500K completely paid) Yadiel Rivera @ league minimum of $400K for now (+$400K for the life of his contract) Josh Osich $400K through 2021 **Which amounts to the $2.5M in 2016 and $1M in 2017 and 2018 described above, plus I've added $400K for 2019, 2020 and 2021.
to the Giants for: James Loney - $5M through 2018 Delmon Young - $400K through 2016 Kyle Lohse - $400K through 2016 1st round amateur draft pick in 2016 1st round amateur draft pick in 2017 Brandon Dixon - MiLB Nate Orf - MiLB Ronny Carvajal - MiLB Eric Aguilera - MiLB Kyle Survance Jr. - MiLB
