Why This Trade Works

Why This Helps The Dang Kookaburra Polks

Gets Riley Greene (25yo, LF/CF eligible, $15, 517 FPTS in 2025) who is a significant OF upgrade. Jonah Tong ($2) is a cheap SP prospect. Adames ($12) is expendable with SS depth. Assad ($11) is underperforming. Saves $21 in salary.

Why John Rocker All-Stars Would Accept

John Rocker is at $484 and this pushes them over - would need to adjust. But Adames is a proven SS ($12) and they have Henderson at SS but could use depth. Assad is a cheap SP option.
