Mariners, Yankees Swap Pineda For Montero: MLB Rumors - MLBTradeRumors.com

The Mariners and Yankees have agreed to a trade that will send Michael Pineda to the Bronx in exchange for Jesus Montero, reports Jon Heyman of CBSSports.com. The trade involves more than just those two players, Heyman adds.

The deal is Pineda and Jose Campos for Montero and Hector Noesi, a source tells MLB.com's Greg Johns.

Yankees easily get the better deal in my opinion, and they get Pineda cheap and under team control for 5 more years. Great deal for them.

Man this is great. This came out of left field. So glad they got great value for Montero..Noesi is no loss

I had to read it to make sure it was a real trade and not a rumor. I had heard nothing about either one of these guys being traded.

Mariners are idiots.

There was speculation from Seattle sources that the Mariners were close to completing a big trade. Now word has leaked that the trade involves Michael Pineda going to the New York Yankees for young catcher Jesus Montero and right handed pitcher Hector Noesi.

Pineda will join the Yankees starting pitcher rotation that includes free agent Hiroki Kuroda, who was signed today, C.C. Sabathia, Ivan Nova and either Phil Hughes, Freddy Garcia or the inconsistent pie lover, A.J. Burnett.
