Luis Robert trade thread: La Pantera stays.
I know one guy who isn’t going to approve either option, hypothetical or not.

Luis Robert trade thread: La Pantera stays.
Why would he choose to do a one year rebound with the Sox though, over a team in competition? He’s gotta be looking for a change of scenery at this point.

I called it a filthy slut. It must like dirty talk more.

Probably makes sense with C. Montgomery’s future up in the air.

Luis Robert trade thread: La Pantera stays.
I’m confused. I thought the options are to either give Robert his $20 million team option for 2026 or buy him out for $2 million? Once they buy him out, he becomes a free agent. You are saying they can still offer him a qualifying offer after that? Even if that’s possible, I don’t see Jerry taking the risk (see Carlos Rodon).

I don’t think Jerry would pay him $40 million over 2026 and 2027 even if he turned it around this season.
-
Luis Robert trade thread: La Pantera stays.
Yeah, I can see that rationale. And if Robert ends up sucking for two seasons straight, would you really take the chance on him at $20 million that he has a comeback season in 2026? Robert missed the memo. At least Davis Martin gets the point.

Yes, because it isn’t our $20 million. But we all know that isn’t going to happen with Jerry around.

The Lenyn Sosa Thread
If Sosa keeps hitting, do you keep him at 2B and throw Meidroth at SS full time?
-
Luis Robert trade thread: La Pantera stays.
No. They may as well take back whatever they can get for him, no matter the pittance. Jerry isn’t going to approve Getz picking up Robert’s $20 million dollar team option for 2026, only his $2 million dollar buyout.

The Sox have the Reds number. Are the Sox going to get a better trade return for Martin than Robert?

Extra ! Extra ! White Sox Winner !
The Rockies look like they are going to obliterate the record though. I guess the Sox will still have the AL record, so they’ve got that going for them!

He was actually doing pretty well though. Better than last season for sure.

5/13 Sox at Reds (5:40 pm)
It’s very nice that he is finally hitting but he still has a long way to go to finish the season with decent numbers. .221 / .314 / .350 / .664 Sad that this is an improvement over his usual numbers, but it just goes to show how horrible a hitter he has been since 2022. Other teams have stars. We hope and pray that a guy can OPS above .700.

Old Saying.
Want to say? Getz came from the old guard. The next true housecleaning will be when a new owner gets rid of everyone from the Jerry regime.

Sadly, that’s a Bondsian OBP compared to the rest of the lineup.
