MLB winter meetings are in full swing. With that comes quite the amount of rumblings. The Kansas City Royals are no different.
Per numerous reports, the San Diego Padres have expressed interest in trading for Royals second baseman/outfielder/jack-of-all-trades, Whit Merrifield. San Diego has a lot of talent but is coming off a 70-win season that was deemed disappointing by many. With a loaded farm system and another offseason for the core to progress, hopes are high heading into 2020.
Merrifield, one of the most versatile and consistent players in all of baseball, brings his lunch pail to work every day and has emerged as one of the faces of the Kansas City Royals.
