Royals Rumblings - News for December 15, 2023

Busy week, huh? First, Will Smith comes back. Then the Royals splash some cash at Seth Lugo. To make room, they traded Taylor Clarke to the Brewers and get some minor leaguers back in return. They also signed Chris Stratton (and have not yet made a corresponding move).

I don’t think we’ve linked to this story yet. At The Athletic, Keith Law writes up a bunch of those moves:

Lugo’s a fastball/curveball guy with some of the highest spin rates ever seen on his breaker, but he works with a big assortment of pitches and doesn’t rely too much on any one pitch.
