Kansas City Royals land three pitchers in trade with Padres

General Manager Dayton Moore said the Kansas City Royals were going to buyers at the trade deadline.

He proved it a week before.

With the Royals coming off a fifth consecutive win on Sunday, Moore made the move that cements a push for a third postseason berth in four years.

While it’s not on the level of landing a Johnny Cueto (or some would argue even Ben Zobrist), the additions should still be a welcome sight for Royals fans.

Cahill should slot in perfectly into the rotation, likely replacing Wood, who started Sunday’s win over the Chicago White Sox.
