Why This Trade Works
Why This Helps The Hamate's Tale
Trades struggling Abreu ($28, .143 AVG) and aging Brandon Lowe ($11) for Yordan Alvarez ($32, elite DH when healthy) and Hye Seong Kim ($3, versatile 2B/SS/CF). Saves $4 in salary. Alvarez is a league-winner when he returns from his ankle issue. Kim provides cheap positional flexibility.
Why THE Bathing Beauties Would Accept
Bathing Beauties has $224 in cap space. They get Abreu, a young RF who could bounce back, and Lowe who provides 2B depth they need (McLain is their only 2B). They shed Alvarez's injury risk and get two everyday players. They're in a position to be patient with Abreu's slump.
