I'm talking just about Robert in this situation.

By...not settling for shitty prospects?

As he should have been. What’s the point of trading him for garbage if you can keep him for two more years?

Those guys are still better than Kaplan.

And this town has plenty of blowhard journalists, too.

I too will believe any report that a dude I've never heard of is giving.

I really thought Rutherford was going to be something.

Especially if he continues to do what he is doing throughout the 2nd half. It'd be a bargain and a half.

I think this is a smart way for the Sox to do it. As much as I loathed Robert for most of this year - you shouldn't settle for a package that does nothing for you since he isn't a true rental player.

If Reinsdorf 100 percent wanted him gone, he would be gone for literally anything.

I think they have two actual deals to make. Houser and Robert. I just don't see any others happening.

Hopefully it's because the Sox gave them an offer to beat and they can't.

There is still like 5 hours left.

Hope Robert goes to the Mets and haunts the Phillies like he did this week.

Sure. Give me Miguel Bleis.

Yeah, they are like a start up running out of runway.

Doesn't even feel like it's "heating up" yet. Let's go!

Better start acting fast. Or a 3 way deal I guess.

Well, no. Because they are competing next year.

What the f*** kind of riddle is this?

The first write up contradicts itself, as well. It says he relies on "decent" velocity, but then he averages less than 90? That for sure ain't decent. I'm guessing the 94 number is more accurate.

99.

Looks like he plays 1st quite a bit too.

Could win over Ishbia if they are building an identity and developing guys. There are hints it could be happening with some of these guys.

Yeah it’s the other team’s problem to get him to them.
