Wow, WTF are the Diamondbacks doing? They could have gotten so much more than that from other teams.
I bet they were really hoping the Yankees would take the bait and trade their players since D'backs kept saying they had other teams who could match what they wanted from the Yankees. Assuming Angels keep him for the long term, they won that deal easily.

Wouldn't be surprised if the reason Yankees didn't want to pay his whole salary was because they are going to try very hard to get him in free agency. Might as well save a few millions to use to sign him than have to trade and then pay part of his contract.
