The Nationals have expressed interest in trading for Herrera, although the Royals' intentions remain unclear, Ken Rosenthal of Fox Sports reports.

Herrera, is not scheduled to become a free agent until after the 2018 season, but his name has been swirling around MLB's early-season trade rumors. Even if the Royals prefer not to move the 27-year-old, their hand may be forced if they fall out of contention before the July 31 trade deadline. Herrera would be highly coveted in the trade market, and with the organization (currently owning MLB's worst record) looking like a house of cards, it wouldn't be a surprise to see him donning a different uniform by late summer.
