Passan confirms a fire sale is not coming as the Royals strongly believe they can compete next year.
Other interesting notes:
Garcia is listed as the best possible fit for Milwaukee. However, Passan clarifies that the Royals are not looking to trade Garcia.
The Royals will likely only move one player maybe two.
It appears that the market for Lugo has cooled off significantly
It’s the most logical and realistic option. We’re heavy in pitching and light in hitting. No reason to buy if we’re not going to do much other than 1 and done in the playoffs.
Fermin for Cronenworth. Padres desperately need help at catcher. We could use another utility infielder with a good bat.
