New trade recap screen is awesome

I play 'em all out so it is a slow pace. Just saw my first cpu to cpu trade go through so went to check out the new trade recap screen. This screen is awesome making it much easier to review and understand trades. The trade was also very good and a sign of more improvement of the trade AI (a never ending battle).

Cardinals (37-46 17 1/2 GB) get 4 prospects from Mets (47-36, 1st place) for SP Jon Learmouth who's 2-5 record reflects playing for a bad Cardinal team.

Mets get..
Learmouth is a 27 yrs old 70/72 SP on the 20/80 scale. 2.4 mil contract with a 6 mil arb estimate for next season. A stud just about to hit his prime.

Cards get 4 prospects, as screen shot shows the #113th and #124th plus two others.

Hibbert #113 19 yrs (almost 20) 21/76 future power hitting 1b with current and potential to suggest he's going to get to the show.

Santellanes Closer, 20 yrs (almost 21) 21/72 again showing good progression suggesting he will also make the bigs in the nest 2-3 yrs

The throw ins are also pretty good..

Parton 20 yrs 20/45 MR who should become a decent bullpen guy.

Rugnao 21 yrs 21/24 C Nothing to brag about but could be a decent backup at the MLB level someday.

I like to review trades and try to understand them and this screen saves so much time, alone almost worth the price of the upgrade. Not to mention how good this trade is for both teams. Mets in first give up a ton of prospective talent to get a top line SP they desperately need to make a run at a title. I've reviewed a lot of trades over the years and I can't recall 4 prospects like this being included. I'm not sure how many times, or if, I've even seen a 4 for 1 by the cpu. If I have it certainly didn't stick out in my mind as more than likely at least two of the players would have been crap.

Might be nice to see the players current\overall added to this screen but maybe it was left out to accommodate all monitor sizes? Certainly not a deal breaker as this screen is a great addition to OOTP.

Sorry, screen shot a bit bleary due to resizing to make it more forum friendly.
