Okay, so let's build a trade around Price and Myers.
Myers has a very backloaded deal, which is interesting. He was paid only $7m in the last three seasons (although there was a signing bonus), but is now owed $20m in each of the next three seasons, before a $20m club option/$1m buyout in 2023. This means his AAV is only about $14m, but he's owed $60m in actual dollars.
However, his performance has been godawful. After four seasons with OPS+ figures between 109 and 115 (pretty good, but less good for a LF/1B), he had a down year last year, posting a 95 OPS+. Basically, he posted a season where he hit like Bradley, except as a bad outfielder and corner infielder. This was either worth half a run of fWAR or -0.3 of rWAR, depending who you trust. And his strikeout rate spiked to 34 percent, driven by an increase in whiffs. He really might be completely cooked. He's always had trouble with sliders down, but in 2019 he started having trouble with high strikes. I'd rather start Dalbec at first.
Price is owed 3/$96m ($31 AAV), and is projected to be worth 2.6 fWAR by Steamer in 2020, and presumably a bit less per year going forward. So basically the problem with Price isn't that he's bad, it's that his $/WAR proposition is awful. He's likely to produce WAR at $13 or $14m a piece, when the FA market has mostly been in the $8-9m range per win. But he has upside, in that he was pitching very well before his weird cyst sidelined him, and that seems like the kind of medical issue that can be dealt with. If he had thrown 170 IP, instead of 107, of 3.60 FIP, we're probably not talking about trading him.
Price is overpaid by $20m or so — or maybe less if this season's pitching inflation is to be believed — but Myers is overpaid by the entire $60m he's owed. If I'm taking Myers back for Price, I want a decent prospect, too.
