They're almost the same level fielder!
I'm sorry, but I can't think of any bizarro world in which this makes any sense.

Typically when I see a salary dump....the team taking salary actually gets something of value for their effort.
Hokey gets: 11M
Piazza gets: A lateral move from Davis to Wurmburg.
Huh?

It may be a salary dump, but they require some sort of compensation. Wurtemberg isn't any form of compensation and Davis is better than piazza gives him credit. According to Mogul's skills tab their defense is the same. It makes sense when you consider while Davis will make more errors, he does have better range and arm. Ultimately it's actually a downgrade going from Davis to Wurtemberg since Wurtemberg can't hit for shit.

not sure where you are getting 11 million.......
D'arnaud is owed 3.86 mil for the rest of the year meaning he is basically paying 5 mil for wurtemberg?
Both expire at the end of the year.

Is Florida getting a bailout here?
I don't care what the amount of money is....what is he paying 3.86M for D'Arnaud, 2M for Wurt, and another cool million on top?
He's getting NOTHING. This is truly a stupid trade. I feel like I should ask if blackmail with nude photos is going on again.
On top of that, when questioned on why Wurt is better than Davis.....piazza said they are "=". So why the hell iis he paying close to 6M to a division rival for a player that is no better than what he has?
