Kris Bubic a Trade Candidate for Royals?
The Kansas City Royals are looking to upgrade their outfield this offseason, and they are willing to trade a starting pitcher in order to get one, according to The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal. The most logical trade candidate could be left-hander Kris Bubic, who is projected to earn $6 million in his final year of salary arbitration before free agency. The Royals aren’t pursuing the most expensive outfield options in Kyle Tucker and Cody Bellinger, and they might also be out on Harrison Bader, who is believed to be seeking a three-year deal. According to people briefed on their talks, KC’s preference is to add two outfielders. They may re-sign Mike Yastrzemski. Adolis Garcia, Max Kepler, Mike Tauchman, Lane Thomas, and JJ Bleday are other free-agent options. Bubic missed most of the second half with a left rotator-cuff strain, but he was cleared to begin throwing in early November and should have a normal season in 2026 after avoiding shoulder surgery.
