It's going to be interesting to see what the Royals do with the roster at the end of July.
Assuming Moose is traded, who becomes your every day 3rd baseman, Cuthbert or Dozier. Personally, I'd rather see Dozier if Duda is still on the roster. But, then, what do you do with Cuthbert. He's out of options so where does he fit? If Duda is not on the roster, I'd like to see Ryan O'Hearn get a shot at 1st. Still no place for Cuthbert.
And the outfield, you have two of the four outfielders that should be let go (Almonte and Orlando). Bonifacio gets one spot but with Gordon, Soler, and Boni, you have no true center fielder. I'd say give Bubba Starling a shot but he's currently on the disabled list.
With the middle infield, if Whit sticks around, I'd release Escobar and put Mondesi at short. If Whit is not around, you keep Escobar and Mondesi plays 2nd.
The Royals will probably surprise us with some moves we'd never considered.
