Why I didn’t include Salvy in my list of Royals players to trade

Recently, I wrote about how the Kansas City Royals could salvage a bit of this lost season by controlling the trade deadline. In that piece, I named 13 players that could likely be moved before August 2nd.

Some of those players, like Andrew Benintendi, are more likely than others to be moved.

Some of those players, like Ryan O’Hearn, are more likely than others to stick around past the trade deadline due to non-interest.

Some of those players, like Nicky Lopez, are more likely than others to sick around because the Royals have plenty of club control over them for years to come.
