With the MLB trade deadline fast approaching, the Royals are rumored to be a team that could acquire Jarren Duran from the Red Sox.

MLB insider Ken Rosenthal links the Boston Red Sox with the Kansas City Royals in a potential Jarren Duran for Seth Lugo trade idea.

The Kansas City Royals have told other teams they would need to be offered "controllable outfield help" in order to consider trading pitcher Seth Lugo, according to The Athletic's Ken Rosenthal.

Vinnie Pasquantino hit two of Kansas City’s four two-run homers and doubled on a 3-for-4 afternoon, leading the Royals past the Chicago Cubs 8-4 on Wednesday. Salvador Perez and rookie Tyler Tolbert also went deep as the Royals took two of three games from the Cubs at Wrigley Field.

Salvador Perez homered twice and drove in four runs, Jac Caglianone and John Rave added solo shots and the Kansas City Royals beat the Chicago Cubs 12-4

The Kansas City Royals gave 45-year-old Rich Hill a start, making him the oldest active player in MLB. Who else is on the list?

By calling up Rich Hill for Tuesday's showdown with the Chicago Cubs, the Kansas City Royals put the 45-year-old left-hander in position to make history.

No one older has ever pitched for the Kansas City Royals. Rich Hill set the new record on Tuesday night when he took the mound for Kansas City against the Cubs. He broke a mark previously held by Gaylord Perry, according to MLB Network's Sarah Langs.
