Why This Trade Works
Why This Helps #RallyZito
Acquires Cade Smith (elite RP, $9, 467.5 FPTS in 2025) and Brent Rooker ($15, 573.5 FPTS, RF/DH eligible) while shedding the aging, expensive Chris Sale ($46). Net salary increase of $17 but gains two productive players. Fills the massive RP void and adds a power bat.
Why The Dang Kookaburra Polks Would Accept
Gets Chris Sale ($46), a former Cy Young winner who despite early struggles projects for 18.45 FPTS/week and had 823 FPTS in 2024. Also gets Max Muncy ($2) as a cheap utility infield option. Kookaburras have $60 in cap space and can absorb Sale's salary while getting an ace-ceiling SP to pair with Skenes.
