WestEddy Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 Can confirm the White Sox are acquiring outfielder Will Robertson. Was DFA'd earlier this week by the Blue Jays. The 27-year-old hit .292/.403/.578 with 14 home runs in 62 games for Triple-A Buffalo this year, appeared at all three outfield spots. — James Fegan (@JRFegan) July 10, 2025 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhiteSox2023 Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 (edited) It’s a shame these fliers that Getz acquires aren’t a bit younger like 24/25, but I guess they might not be available then. Here’s a recent article on him from last month when the Blue Jays called him up… “Under the Radar Blue Jays prospect: Will Robertson“ I presume he will be called up to play RF once Tauchman is dealt.

Chicago White Sox Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 I don’t hate it. There should be plenty of playing time after the trade deadline an I’d much rather give this dude those ABs than Fletcher or DeLoach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timmy U Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 Worth a shot. Journeyman profile, but some of these guys hit. Look at Tauchman. Similar career prior to promotion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capn12 Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 27 for Getz is like 22-23 to any other GM, finally a guy under 30! We'll see how it goes, whatever might assist in the removal of over 30 journeymen from the roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chitownsportsfan Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 I like this move. 27, lefty, perhaps a true talent uptick this year. I can't stress enough how important it is to keep looking for LHB. We've seen what even a solid lefty bat can do in Tauchman. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
