This is a day we’ve had circled on the calendar really since the Royals starting circling the drain sometime in mid-June. Dayton Moore has been pretty adamant about not wanting to trade pieces that can help the team win next year. I’ve been pretty adamant that anything they do to take away from the 2023-2027 team in favor of 2022 is silly. Honestly, I still don’t care if they try to win in 2022 as long as it doesn’t take away from an actual chance of being a good team and not just catching lightning in a bottle. The last couple weeks have shown what Moore likely sees in this team.
