Why This Trade Works
Why This Helps Guys I Have Coached
Move Olson ($33) and Strahm ($7) for Austin Riley ($26, buy-low on injury) and Gavin Williams ($9, 542.6 FPTS with 17.03 projection). Riley fills 3B and has massive upside when healthy, while Williams is a young ace-caliber SP. Saves $5 in salary while getting younger and adding SP firepower.
Why Deville Dandies Would Accept
Deville Dandies have huge cap room ($214 remaining). They get Olson, a proven 1B (596.7 FPTS) to pair with or replace Xavier Isaac (not yet in MLB). Strahm adds reliable RP depth. Riley has been hurt and underperforming, so selling him for a proven 1B makes sense. Williams is good but they have deep SP already.
