Why This Trade Works
Why This Helps John Rocker All-Stars
Saves $22 in salary. Garrett Crochet ($22, 895.3 FPTS in 2025, 23.53 projection) is an absolute ace - the best SP available in any trade. This transforms the rotation. Hoerner ($25) is solid but overpaid for his production, and McClanahan ($17) is an injured stash with uncertain return. Gipson-Long ($2) is a minor throw-in. Getting Crochet alone makes this trade worthwhile.
Why Diamonds Aren't For Devers Would Accept
Diamonds Aren't For Devers gets Nico Hoerner, a reliable 2B (550 FPTS in 2025, consistent producer) to upgrade over Gleyber Torres. McClanahan ($17) is a high-upside SP stash who was elite before injury (419.9 FPTS in 2023, 14.25 projection). They have SP depth with Fried, Gavin Williams, Bradish, and can afford to move Crochet for positional help and SP depth.
