Deals might happen soon.
Dream scenarios:
Moustakas to Yankees for something like Luis Medina and Juan Then.
Merrifield to Brewers for Corey Ray, Joe Gray Jr (2018 comp round pick connected to Royals pre-draft) and a B pitching prospect sounds about right and might be a little light.

The Phillies have amassed so much starting pitching depth that the Royals
might be able to convince them that Eflin is pitching over his head a bit and take a shot at him.
Eickhoff's issues are starting to sound vaguely thoracic outletish though, so the Phils may not be willing to move a guy that's made huge strides in approach and raw stuff this year. But man, snagging Eflin before this season's breakout would've been a coup and damn doable. The ship has probably sailed there...
