Royals getting Jonathan India and Joey Wiemer for Brady Singer, per MLBTR.
Not sure if this is a Royals salary trimming or what. (Singer's entering his first arb season; India's a year away, as is Wiemer, the lesser player; both hit FA in 2027.)
Solid rotation addition for the Reds, who are already decent there, and with young and cost-controlled players. (Aside from that QO for Martinez.)

I hate it. I wanted R.O.Y India to stay forever
This is a good trade for both teams. Both players are in similarly contract situations and have similar WAR over their short careers.
The Reds get a solid ground ball pitcher to pitch at GABP, one of the top HR parks in the league.
The Royals get another decent bat in the infield to support Bobby Witt Jr.
The Reds front office are idiots. Who’s next? Greene?
Damn… a Gator for a Gator, huh?
