Royals Rumors: KC Interested In Rays Starter Matt Moore

Royals rumors indicate the team is interested in Tampa Bay Rays lefty starter Matt Moore, according to Boston Globe reporter Nick Cafardo. The KC Royals are one of a long list of suitors for Moore, along with the Red Sox, Rangers, Dodgers, Yankees, Orioles, and Astros.

According to Cafardo, Tampa Bay is considering dealing Moore because they have Alex Cobb coming back from Tommy John surgery soon.

The 27-year-old Moore recently impressed scouts by holding the Red Sox scoreless over 7.0 innings last Wednesday, allowing 3 hits, 2 walks, and striking out 7.
