Harry Chappas Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Robertson, $17M in cash and Gonzalez for Giolito. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feeky Magee Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Some of these suggestions are ridiculous. If Robertson was somehow made a free agent now, what would his contract be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Robertson was somehow made a free agent now, what would his contract be? Probably a little more than it is right now. Probably would look at a deal of 2/$29 given the current market.

If Robertson was somehow made a free agent now, what would his contract be? More than it is currently, in all likelihood. But I agree with your point - the Sox aren't getting Giolito for Robertson. lol Edited July 27, 2016 by ChiSox59 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ptatc Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 27, 2016 -> 01:54 PM) Robertson for Michael Taylor and mid-level prospect is my guess That makes sense. Either that or 2 A ball prospects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchetman Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 27, 2016 -> 01:54 PM) Robertson for Michael Taylor and mid-level prospect is my guess That's about fair I guess. As a side note, he was #32 prospect in baseball a couple years ago and now he's relatively terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigsoxhurt35 Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 I'd rather not take on a prospect who has failed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sox Fan In Husker Land Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 (edited) Are there any rules on trading just signed international prospects like there are on just drafted Rule-4 prospects? If not then I wouldn't mind Washington throwing in one of their SS's they signed this year (Luis Garcia, Yasel Antuna, Jose Sanchez) with Jakson Reetz. How about Reynaldo Lopez for Robertson?

GGajewski18 Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 I think Fedde and Jackson Reetz would be a good return for Robertson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCCWS Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 QUOTE (hi8is @ Jul 27, 2016 -> 07:44 PM) Sign me up Robertson is owed a lot of money in the coming years. I think the return in prosects will be very limited unless the White Sox are covering part of the future salary. My guess is he stays w us.

The thing with the Nationals is they have to give in because they dont have a choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
