Well its official...the A's have traded Tim Hudson to the Braves. However, the A's did not get Marcus Giles in return. Instead the A's get pitchers Dan Meyer, and Juan Cruz as well as young OFer Charles Thomas.

As an Oakland fan this hurts, clearly a salary dump...if Giles would have been included it would have been alot better. It could be along year in Oakland with the M's loading up and the Halos remaining very good.
Not really a salary dump, so much as trading away 1 years rights for something in return.
