Addressing the OF shortage (Robert Injury Spinoff)
I know you're joking, but what's the point of even getting DeShields when he's a worse version of Adam Engel?

Addressing the OF shortage (Robert Injury Spinoff)
Eaton, despite looking kind of iffy in RF, still has really good sprint speed (85th percentile). I know some have said he's lost a step, but he really hasn't. Gallo is probably better off in a corner OF position full-time. He gets good jumps, but his speed has been declining for the past 2 years.

I know Jerry's cheap, but Gallo barely makes anything for the player he is. I doubt he'll fork over extra prospects for a $10 million discount on a guy we desperately need.

Addressing the OF shortage (Robert Injury Spinoff)
Gallo is good in theory, but I have some real concerns that he can still play CF. He used to have above average speed (58th percentile in 2020 and 70th percentile in 2019), but he's now down to just 43rd percentile this year. Which has caused his defense to regress quite a bit, even given the SSS. I'm not sure why he's slowed down so much over the past 2 seasons as he's technically in his prime and hasn't had any major leg injuries. Also, his lack of power and increased K rate this year doesn't draw a ton of confidence from me. His BABIP is also .432 despite hitting just .230. I'm not sure he went from a 3 true outcomes guy to a strikeout/walk/blooper guy. It's early in the season, things might change, but some of this stuff is concerning.

There's zero chance the Mariners take that deal...

He's either Luis Robert without the defense or Eloy Jimenez without a hit tool.

2020 NBA Regular Season Thread
Bulls are way closer to a top 4 pick than a play in tournament spot. LaVine is back, I just hope they don't pass up Toronto or Sacramento. There's about a 32% chance they land top 4 and keep next year's pick.

Gallo makes sense. White Sox and Rangers have a good trade relationship already with 2 deals made in the last 2 seasons.

If all they do is sign Goodwin, I'd be mad. But what did you expect them to do in less than 24 hours after the Robert news?

It's a minor league deal too. Got nothing to lose here basically.

Luis Robert grade 3 strain/torn Hip Flexor, est. out 12-16 weeks
Can we get a Tony La Russa banner?

Addressing the OF shortage (Robert Injury Spinoff)
I guess this is better than hoping Nick Williams finds his 2017-2018 form. At least he was half decent as recently as last season.
