J.J. Picollo and the Kansas City Royals' front office have positioned themselves to push for the postseason after a series of moves this past week, headlined of course by the extension of Seth Lugo.
Apart from their injury-plagued rotation, one of the areas they've struggled with is their outfield, which has long been considered this season as one of the worst outfields in all of baseball. Entering Wednesday's rubber-match against the Atlanta Braves, the Royals outfield ranked last in fWAR (-2.5), wRC+ (61), OBP, (.594), HR (20) and RBI (82).
This makes further outfield additions beyond Randal Grichuk and Adam Frazier a logical avenue for the Royals to continue upgrading if they choose to further insert themselves into the buyer's category at the deadline.
