DanofDuPage Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Carlos Rodon has gotten off to a fast start with the Giants. We have seen that before like last year. Hurt in other years. Today he is down 4-0 to the Cardinals in the 2nd. Just couldn’t finish a season. The Sox gave up on Carlos and let him walk. Over the last couple of years they could have gotten a quality player in trade. What is Carlos Rodon worth? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EloyJenkins Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Carlos Rodon was absolutely worthless 2 months before the 2021 season and got 3 million dollars. Please dont make threads anymore. K thanks, bye. 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a free agent and thus not the property of the Sox to trade, so what they could have gotten was nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanofDuPage Posted May 16, 2022 Author Share Posted May 16, 2022 You missed over the last couple of years what could the Sox have gotten. I know he was a free agent last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly problems with the slider and off speed stuff...as well as location in the zone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago White Sox Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 I think we should all just wait and see what Rodon provides over the course of the season before any judgements. The early returns look bad and not offering a QO seems dumb in hindsight, but it’s a long season and his arm could fall apart at any time. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 But to answer the OP, they were never going to trade him last year...it wouldn't have made any sense for a playoff contender to sell off their best pitcher in-season. It would have been unprecedented. Not even the Rays have done something like that, they were trying to deal Glasnow but he was injured, that was a totally financial-based decision. And most could feel the second half decline already coming based on his previous workload. By July 31st, he was already a major question mark for the Sox and the rest of baseball.

Balta1701 Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 The last time Rodon had substantial trade value was something like 2016. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanofDuPage Posted May 16, 2022 Author Share Posted May 16, 2022 Another ignorant reply. So over all the years Rick Hahn never had anyone interested in Carlos Rodon? Your answer has no relevance. Bow Wow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was like the pitching version of Eloy Jimenez until the first four months of 2021, when his career/future was really on the line...back to the wall.

Quin Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Like, when were you going to trade him? Last year? Because otherwise, he had no real value. This is like my mom randomly texting me yesterday that the Sox should trade Engel and Mendick (for Montas) to make room for Burger and Sheets.

Richie Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Rodon didn't have trade value his last couple of years here. It would take him getting through a full season of pitching like this and staying healthy before I truly regret not giving him 2 years/44 mil.

southsider2k5 Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 Carlos Rodon had absolutely zero trade value in the last few years except for when they needed him most last year. He was hurt in 2019 and 2020. He was a free agent in the winter of 20-21, and got a $3 million offer as a starting pitcher. That right there is the definition of zero trade value. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would imagine he would return little more than a minor league lotto ticket prior to last season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
