My simple 2c suggestions, for sure no rocket science

Do a 20000 points transfer (wait to have them in case you are below this number). SPG puts an other 5000 as a gift.
19999 points ->19999 AA miles
20000 points ->25000 AA miles
23000 points ->28000 AA miles


If you can wait, wait for a promotional transfer.
I used already twice this approach with AA; the last one just 20 days ago !
For over 20K miles, a 35% bonus.
So 20000 SPG points -> 25000 AA miles -> 33750 AA miles after the bonus !
