Why This Trade Works

Why This Helps The South Side Fuck Ups

Wheeler ($44) is 35 with shoulder concerns. Trading him and Moreno ($5) for Freddy Peralta ($24) who is younger (29) and producing well (687 FPTS), plus Jordan Westburg ($9) who fills 2B/3B need. Saves $16 in salary while getting younger at SP and adding a versatile infielder.

Why The Hamate's Tale Would Accept

Hamate's Tale gets an elite (when healthy) ace in Wheeler to pair with Rodon and Burnes (both injured), and Moreno adds catcher depth behind their weak C spot (Quero). Wheeler's upside is massive if healthy.
