It was no secret that the Kansas City Royals were looking to trade away some of their veteran players. It was rumored that many players from the Royals were going to be traded away before the July 31 non-waiver trade deadline. But, most of the rumors never came to fruition, including trading Whit Merrifield and Danny Duffy. But, it was expected that Lucas Duda would be traded away at some point in time.
It was announced earlier today that Lucas Duda has been traded to the Atlanta Braves in exchange for cash.
