Played whole series a man down.

If Robert never plays, maybe the team we are trading him to won't realize he sucks.

Man Cannon has some ugly looking Statcast figures.  Just doesn’t seem he has any sort of out pitch and doesn’t generate a ton ground balls either.  He’s probably fine as a passable #5, but he’s got to make some pitch / repertoire changes if he really wants to hold that spot or ever be more than that.  Having a diverse arsenal of bad to ok pitches will only take you so far.

He throws a lot of cockshots

Michael A. Taylor is the better CF right at this moment. Robert is a bench bat until he proves otherwise. 

Vargas at first, Quero DH much better lineup. 

I bet Verlander gets straight today

Noda going yard today.

Notes on Cannon and Martin, Palisch cleared waivers and Robert to the IL. 

Pregame notes: Jonathan Cannon returns to rotation, Luis Robert Jr. returns to IL - Sox Machine

Oh, and didn't someone say this earlier?

Normally this (Robert on the 10-day injured list) is massive and crushing news for the White Sox, and it certainly doesn't help their plans to get literally anything of value for him in a trade, but Robert has a .584 OPS this season and Michael A. Taylor has been straight-up outplaying him.

Only like 32 more days at most of Robert

It’s fucking frustrating that Michael A Taylor is the best CF on a roster that includes Luis Robert

At this point I doubt they even trade him. He's been terrible what value could they possibly get from him.

Getz betted on Robert increasing his value during the season instead of trading him in the offseason for the best offer he could've gotten and now lost the bet and probably has to trade him for not nearly as much. 

 

Classic.

Imagine getting outplayed by this guy

Michael A. Taylor would easily outplay me. The catcher would have had to run up the line some to tag me out. 

it was raining at the ballpark? I've been out all morning hoping for a cloud or two...it's oppressively hot. feels great though, skipped over spring and went straight from 30 to 100.

Cannon fodder

They’ll trade him but not for much

Who is going to want him with his salary?

No one. They are waiting until Tuesday. I bet it’s Baldwin, but who knows?
