There will be more trades from the Royals in the next several days as the deadline approaches.

Jake Diekman has been the most often Royal to be mentioned in trades along with some Ian Kennedy and Billy Hamilton rumors.

These may not be the only Royals to be moved, especially if Jorge Soler keeps hitting bombs and earns more walks, or the Royals get the dreamy return they are asking for with a Whit Merrifield trade.

The Royals have done well with the trades they have made. There is more work to be done, but the brass is making the kinds of player decisions that are necessary to rebuild a quality farm and keep the big league club as competitive as can be during a rebuild.
