Or we can simply blame him and JR for extending the contract into 2025/26 when cutting bait entirely seemed the most prudent course after the last two seasons. There was no surplus value remaining after those two injury plagued and underperforming years...which is how exactly Getz ended up with a -0.6 fWAR value "suspect" player. Would have been better to take on Vientos, and simply turn around to trade him, too.

James Kruk, by the way, is the head athletic trainer who was in charge of Luis Robert during the majority of his Sox career.

"But regardless of where he finishes, undoubtedly, the White Sox will be building their future around Robert. They knew this, of course, when they signed him to a big-money contract extension before he’d played a single major league game. They didn’t know he’d be one of the only players the White Sox based their future on to actually live up to the hype. While injuries and underperformance have prevented the expected successes of Jiménez, Yoán Moncada and, to a lesser degree, Tim Anderson to this point in their careers, Robert, finally blessed with health this season, has become that otherworldly talent. “I honestly think he’s very underrated, and it’s really not fair to him. I think he’s one of the best in the game,” Touki Toussaint said. “He needs to be on that list of all those other guys.” This is, of course, what the White Sox are paying Robert to do. Robert was billed as a six-tool player on his way to the big leagues. No one ever said the sixth tool was leadership."

Glad that I have so much power and influence. What next, I should initiate Crowdfunding/GFM campaigns since JR will never personally shell out the money required for extensions to our young core players?
