There's nothing "weird" about the values here. The point you're making is that, in your opinion, Smith is too low -- and you're a Cleveland fan, so that's your bias. But the values represent the overall market.
I will be honest, I am a baseball fan before a Guardians fan... Teams are not going to give up more for Donovan than Smith. Donovan has two years of control Vs Smith's four years... Smith has had 2.7 WAR both of his MLB seasons... Donovan has been around 3 in his 4... Smith is a closer now and a good one at that, while Donovan is a solid hitter, but has negative defense and base running values. Also, looking at some of the stats... Fangraphs has Kwan at a negative 6 projection value on defense... He has never been negative and was a positive 8 last season with an injured wrist... I love the site, don't get me wrong, just certain numbers come out weird to reality.
