July 31, 2025Jul 31 Does anyone really think the Sox will pick up Robert's option if JR isn't convinced he's almost guaranteed to be a $30 million player next season?
July 31, 2025Jul 31 Yeah, just keep Robert at this point. These returns for outfielders have been less than desirable.
July 31, 2025Jul 31 They have got to move Robert (assuming decent offers). Holding him to pick up an option is a bad plan. Frankly, not trading Tauchman for the good of the clubhouse is questionable too. We'll see how positive and happy he is to be on this team for another round. And why are Houser, Civale and the entire pen still in town? Okay, still 2 hours left; I can get off the ledge..... Edited July 31, 2025Jul 31 by GreenSox
July 31, 2025Jul 31 Robert should have been traded back when they dealt Cease. Was moronic not to do it back then. Getz and company just keep waiting for that perfect offer that is never going to come..
July 31, 2025Jul 31 So we are just relying on Robert to stay healthy and productive then. What a novel fucking concept.

Really doubt he wants to go elsewhere.
July 31, 2025Jul 31 sox about to take a minimum $27m gamble on robert lmao with mullins return I doubt getz got any serious offers from the mets
July 31, 2025Jul 31 Houser has to go, but it's not exactly shocking that no relief pitcher has been traded. They're all bad and mostly rather short on talent. Few if any are pending FA. No urgency, no value. Grant Taylor obviously an exception on the value/talent part, but would be a weird time to trade him as well.

At a minimum, Robert will cost the rest of his $15 million salary for this year along with a $2 million to get rid of via his 2026 buyout after this season. Or, you have to guarantee Robert $22 million ($20 million option + $2 million buyout for 2027) to bring him back for next season. Edited July 31, 2025Jul 31 by WhiteSox2023

Nope. They will let him walk most likely and no one except die hard Sox fans will notice or care cause it will the heart of football season.
July 31, 2025Jul 31 With what teams got for Bader and Mullins, there was probably quite a few phones hung up on both sides. There's likely no way the Sox got any decent offers for Robert.
