Since Aroldis Chapman is no longer available, the Cincinnati Reds should consider this Kansas City Royals reliever as a potential candidate

+

The Cincinnati Reds are expected to be active during this year's MLB trade deadline, but they are unlikely to splurge by sacrificing their top prospects. One specific area the Reds should focus on before August 1st is bolstering their bullpen. While they may also consider adding a starter, relievers generally come at a lower cost in terms of prospect capital required for a trade. Many Reds fans had hoped for the acquisition of former closer Aroldis Chapman, but unfortunately, the left-hander was traded to the Texas Rangers. However, the Kansas City Royals still have at least one reliever in their bullpen who could draw the interest of the Reds.
