I very much liked the trade that brought Mike Montgomery back to the Kansas City Royals. We gave up Martin Maldonado. A catcher that was doing nothing for the struggling 2019 Royals, a team with no hope of a postseason. It also gave us another much-needed arm in the rotation.
The Royals are desperate when it comes to pitching.
For all the talk about the young arms in the minors, and there is plenty of good to say about them, it does not make up for the gaping holes we have currently in both our rotation and our bullpen.
