Inbox: Does Moose's move to 1st increase trade value?

KANSAS CITY -- Royals general manager Dayton Moore said repeatedly during the Winter Meetings and Spring Training that the main focus this season was to restock the farm system.

The Royals accelerated that process last week courtesy of the MLB Draft and the trade of outfielder Jon Jay to the D-backs, which netted two prospects -- including their now-No. 27 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, 18-year-old right-hander Elvis Luciano.

And there is much more work to be done between now and the non-waiver Trade Deadline on July 31.
