Chicago White Sox Posted July 28 Share Posted July 28 45 minutes ago, TheFutureIsNear said: Getz needs to hurry up and trade Robert, people’s brains are melting in real time in this thread. Robert got like 8 hits and people are suddenly being picky about the return of arguably the worst hitter in the sport over the past 2 calendar years. The player being discussed is a slow, RH hitting 1B / DH who is currently posting -0.4 fWAR and currently has a lower xwOBA than the player you just called the “worst hitter in the sport over the past 2 calendar year”. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rey21 Posted July 29 Share Posted July 29 (edited) Would anyone be upset if they held onto Robert and pick up his option as opposed to trading him for a garbage return? Edited July 29 by Rey21 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubtful, but I’d rather they do that than trade him for total garbage. If the packages are as bad as rumors suggest, let’s see if he can carry this momentum the final two months. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You 100% pick up that option if the offers are bad. Are you worried about our payroll breaking $40M next season? What are you saving that $20M for? 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
