I’d be ok with this trade from the Rays’ perspective. They have adequate replacements for Adames and, if the past week has shown us anything, they need to upgrade their outfield defense. The problem is payroll, and specifically taking on Gallo’s salary without unloading Tsutsugo’s. For this trade to work, the Rangers would need to take back Tsutsugo.
