Nestor Cortes traded to SD.

That likely is what Robert's value is... People need to take a big step back if they think 2023 Robert is coming back (he isn't).

C'mon, Getz is a mediocre to bad GM. Yes, he made a lot of internal changes to improve how the Sox operate, but so would ANY GM that came into the Sox FO once they saw how poorly it was being run. Getz continues to prove he folds around the deadline and can't play with the big boy GM's of the league. They call his bluff.

Getz once again master-classed by the league, again. He's really, really bad at this deadline stuff.

No, because Robert is FAR more likely to be bad than good or hurt himself next season. His track record is terrible. Get what you can and move on, they already gambled this year he would bounce back he fell flat on his face.

I'm pleasantly surprised the Sox got a ranked guy for Slater. Solid move that payed off for Getz.

I'm surprised we haven't heard anything after his scratch. Wonder what is being worked on.

If the value of Robert is Veintos or 2 18 yr old projects in the DSL, I'll take Vientos. I'd rather gamble on a guy who has proved he can hit bombs at the MLB level, buy him on the cheap, and try to get him right again, than depend on the Sox developing dice rolls to be valuable for the team 4 years from now.

I don't see anything wrong with that. I have a 20 game plan that I go to the vast majority of games with my 76 yr old father. I'm not gonna let my hatred for Jerry take away from spending quality time with my Dad.

He's 34 and having a good year. Not cashing him in for something at the deadline is malpractice by Getz.

There is no way you are getting Crawford for Robert straight up. Robert isn't going to net much outside a couple top 11-20 prospects range, if we are lucky.

I know this will be an unpopular take, but if the Sox think Taylor's a RP long-term, you absolutely need to entertain trading him, especially if you get a legitimate bat in return. Especially if his mechanics are going to keep him out of the rotation.

This game was fun.

Robertson feels like the 2025 version of DeLoach. Low-risk, dice roll on a potential solid 4th-ish OF type/depth piece. Likely a DFA guy at the end of the year, but the Sox don't have many options for 2026 and are going to need replacements for Robert, Taylor, Slater and Tauchman. He certainly wasn't impressive when I saw him the last home series.

I think the Phillies. Crawford could be used to net a better return IMO. If the Guardians make Kwan available, I could see them jumping into that market.

I was completely convinced he was set for TJ. If he manages to come back without any setbacks that would be a surprising development to me.

At least yours is game-used. I have an autographed commemorative Yermin Mercedes bad that I paid $250 for... Probably would make some nice firewood now.

It has to be Capra. The guy is a waste at the MLB level.

They have a lot of MI prospects. I'd gladly take one off their hands.

They may limit it if there is a sellout. I believe Mexican Heritage Night had ticket checkers for the 100 level.

He's totally going to be on this team once Houser/Civale are dumped. Expecting absolutely nothing - he looked cooked with Cleveland.

Don't forget the "dangle the carrot" and always aim for 2nd place comments too.

This is amazing. He's a favorite player of mine now.

Not sure if this has been posted here yet, but Bannister was tweeting some Schultz-related stuff. There must be some good reason they want him in Charlotte over Birmingham working on stuff.

I don't hate giving Noda a shot. This lineup needs some pop desperately, and unlike Elko he actually has an approach at the plate.
