DoUEvenShift Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 If Robert never plays, maybe the team we are trading him to won't realize he sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicago White Sox Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 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. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestEddy Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 (edited) 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? Quote 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. Edited June 29 by WestEddy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Sacamano Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 It’s fucking frustrating that Michael A Taylor is the best CF on a roster that includes Luis Robert 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.
