Why This Trade Works
Why This Helps The Hamate's Tale
Moves injured Rodon ($24, out with elbow) and slumping Happ ($21, .111 AVG) for Trevor Rogers ($7, 514.3 FPTS, elite projection of 18.59) and Jarren Duran ($19, 531.8 FPTS, .583 AVG hot start). Saves $19 in salary while getting a productive OF and a breakout SP. Rogers at $7 is absurd value.
Why Take Maholm Tonight Would Accept
Take Maholm has $133 in cap space and can absorb the salary. Rodon is a stash for when he returns from injury - elite upside. Happ is a proven hitter in a slump who could easily return to 500+ FPTS form. They're getting two established veterans with track records.
