BOSTON, MA – JULY 29: Drew Butera /

Here at Kings of Kauffman, we’ve identified five potential targets for the Kansas City Royals as we head toward the trade deadline.

So what’s next for the Kansas City Royals?

The arms have been fortified with the addition of Trevor Cahill, Brandon Maurer and Ryan Buchter—the former in line for a spot in the rotation, the latter shoring up a bullpen that had been forced to turn to Al Alburquerque in key moments in recent weeks.

The Royals have won six straight and enter Tuesday night a game-and-a-half out in the AL Central and a game up on the Rays for the second Wild Card spot. They could easily compete right now—heck, they are easily competing right now.

But if they’re going for it—and there’s no reason not to, future be damned at this point—then let’s go for it.

Here now are five logical trade targets for the Kansas City Royals with six days left until the trade deadline.
