The trade deadline is fast approaching, and with the Royals having already acquired Hunter Harvey and Michael Lorenzen, they could be targeting another reliever to add to a beleaguered bullpen. According to Ken Rosenthal, the Royals are one of a number of teams interested in Marlins closer Tanner Scott.
Jim Bowden corroborated the reporting on the Royals’ interest today, writing that the Orioles, Red Sox, and Yankees were the other top teams vying for his services.
