wow, oh wow ... Jesus coming, Michael going ....

Here are just a few of the barrage of tweets from earlier tonight as rumor turned reality in a matter of minutes...

jcrasnickThe  are moving closer to a trade for a young impact hitter, two baseball sources confirmed.
StoneLarryWouldn't be surprised if deal referenced by  involves Michael Pineda and Jesus Montero. Rumblings in that direction.
JonHeymanCBSSea does have deal according to  hearing rumblings it MAY involve pineda and montero
GregJohnsMLBNo confirmation from team, but source says Mariners sending Pineda and Jose Campos to Yankees for Jesus Montero/Hector Noesi.
StoneLarrySnap judgment is I like the trade. Tough to give up Pineda, but M's have young pitching depth, and desperately needed a high-upside bat.
JonHeymanCBSso seattle picks up a pitcher on cusp of mlb in noesi along with big bat montero.  thrilled to upgrade rotation w/ pineda
GregJohnsMLBEarly reaction: Yankees fans upset at losing Montero, Mariners fans upset at giving up Pineda. Both are top young 22-yr.olds.
jaysonstMontero-Pineda is one of most fascinating deals in years. Two young studs with star power. No money factor. A pure, old-time baseball trade




It won't be "official" until the physicals are complete and accepted.
Still processing it all ... more later.
