White Sox Sign Robert to Extension

Featured Replies

The main way that Brinson and Robert are different is in their GB and FB rates - Robert has less data, but his FB rate at every stop in 2019 was above 40%, Brinson at the same level was below 30%, I believe. That should at least help Luis get into his power better than Brinson, although I think the K rate is pretty concerning.

  • Cool but who fucking cares

  • Really happy for James Fox / Y2Jimmy getting the credit he deserves. I don't have to tell anyone on this site but the man has paid his dues and put the work in. Good on Passan. 

  • "Sox are gonna be good" by Passan just made my third leg move a little.  

Wow.. @Y2Jimmy0 take a bow. You made it.

He's better than Tayron Guerrero.

That’s debatable.

Gotta love a guy that embraces the chrome dome.

This is fantastic news he will be in opening day lineup

Props to Passan as well for giving credit where it's due.  There's a whole lot of crusty old baseball guys out there that will only acknowledge info that comes from their cronies.

He will. He's big on meditation and yoga. That number has something to do with that (and Sadhguru)

Idk if it's intentional, but signing an 88 million dollar deal and then choosing to wear no 88 is the most baller thing imaginable. 

Gonna be interesting to see them try to fit #350 on a jersey in 8 years

Soooo happy with this!!! A+++ off-season.

Right now Robert is a freak defensively. The concern is he's absolutely massive so people think he'll eventually size his way out of CF. Hes big and bulky but fast as all hell. Not something to worry about today though.

I would describe him as muscular, but not "bulky". He seems quite defined, to me.

Oh suddenly he's not too raw for the majors for you?

Once I watched 6 minutes of the 8 minute video of his swing I had a slight changing of my mind.

Maybe we can get him to meditate on Jesus and the Gospels!

That's a pretty cool shout out from a media bigfoot!

It is funny that your grandson taught you about K:BB ratio a few months ago and it launched you into this obsession with it. 

I explained my reasoning about the high importance of K to W a while back. I dont have the energy to do it again right now.

I would describe him as sinewy.

Yup. It's going to be a ridiculous extension but the fact is he's likely to be worth it.

It's about time we start paying for our own players rather that others! Things could really start getting exciting on the southside!

This is pretty funny coming from you.

Far be it from me to rob anyone of their joy, just remember that if he struggles initially that I was right on the internet, the best kind of being right.

you saying Jesus Christ can't hit a curve ball?

Yeah, but he's 6'2 about 220 now. That is absolutely massive for a guy who probably has about 4% body fat. That is a lot of weight to carry with elite speed, and speed can diminish a bit more quickly when you're that size as a kid. He could still fill out a bit more too.
