Major League Baseball's trade deadline is scheduled for next Thursday, which means teams have less than a week to get their midsummer shopping done. The moves have already started, as the Mariners recently acquired Josh Naylor from the Diamondbacks while the Yankees acquired Ryan McMahon in a trade with the Rockies.

Arizona shipped off outfielder Randal Grichuk to the Royals, The Post’s Jon Heyman confirmed on Saturday. Right-handed pitcher Andrew Hoffman is going back to Arizona. Going into Saturday’s play, Grichuk has a .243 batting average with a .742 OPS with 15 doubles through 69 games this season.

ESPN's Jeff Passan reports that Randal Grichuk is coming to Kansas City from the Arizona Diamondbacks. Grichuk is a 33-year-old right-handed slugger, and at this point in his career, he's much better versus left-handed pitching.
