Recent actions suggest the Royals are more inclined to buy players rather than sell, highlighted by the acquisition of outfielder Randal Grichuk. Left-handed pitcher Daniel Bubic has faced considerable trade speculation but indications show the team may want to retain him. Bubic reported shoulder stiffness, which raises concerns about his health and potential injury list placement. His impressive 2.55 ERA in 20 starts makes him a valuable player, but his current condition complicates the team's options for both postseason chances and trade assets.
If Bubic is indeed dealing with an injury that requires a trip to the shelf, it would be a huge blow to the club's already somewhat remote chances of making it to the postseason this year.
Bubic has been a revelation this season as a member of the rotation, with a 2.55 ERA and 2.85 FIP across 20 starts.
