ROYALS BRING IN MASON BLACK
The Kansas City Royals acquired pitcher Mason Black from the San Francisco Giants for pitcher Logan Martin.
What does it give the Kansas City Royals
Black is just 26 years old and can both start and relieve, which makes him valuable to any MLB franchise. He might get a chance to start with KC in spring training.
What does it give the San Francisco Giants
The Giants decided to designate Black for assignment, so they did well to land pitching prospect Martin in the deal. The latter should be at least a year away from MLB.
Fantasy impact
Keep an eye on both Black and Martin this season. Both could benefit from the change of scenery that this trade provided. That said, neither is a high-end fantasy option for the future.
