The Kansas City Royals could trade Seth Lugo to the Chicago Cubs ahead of the 2025 MLB Trade Deadline, giving Chicago a rotation boost while KC builds for the future.
Its Tuesday, July 22 and the Royals (49-52) are in Chicago to take on the Cubs (59-41). Rich Hill is slated to take the mound for Kansas City against Matthew Boyd. Salvador Perez went yard twice last night as the Royals blitzed the Cubs in Game 1 of the series last night,
Boyd had a stellar 1.78 ERA in June, and he’s carried that brilliance into July, posting a 0.90 ERA across three starts. The hurler had cashed the Under in earned runs allowed in all of those appearances, and he even threw eight shutout innings against the New York Yankees in his last start before the All-Star Game festivities.
