Reports: Diamondbacks trade OF Randal Grichuk to Royals

The Arizona Diamondbacks are trading outfielder Randal Grichuk to the Kansas City Royals, per multiple reports.
Grichuk, a 12-year veteran, has played for the St. Louis Cardinals, Toronto Blue Jays, Colorado Rockies, Los Angeles Angels, and the Diamondbacks. This season, he has posted seven home runs and 22 RBIs with a .243/.280/.462 batting line. He logged time at all three outfield positions.
The Diamondbacks continue to be sellers at the deadline. They shipped veteran first baseman Josh Naylor to the Seattle Mariners earlier this week.
Meanwhile, the Royals made a bold choice to become buyers. At 51-53, the squad is 3.5 games behind in the AL wild card race. Grichuk adds an established bat to an outfield that has been relying on rookies Jac Caglianone and John Rave.
Caglianone exited Saturday’s game against the Guardians with a left hamstring injury and is considered day to day.
