The Royals have had many weak points this season, but one name has gone from that to a major bright spot and potential prime trade candidate ahead of Aug. 3.

The Royals have had a crumby year no doubt, but they certainly have names worthy of All-Star recognition. And perhaps Jac Caglianone should be amongst them.
