The DH gives them a chance to bring up another starter / pitcher. Also gives them a better chance at salvaging one of two games instead of getting swept again. World Series of Poker for me over White Sox in either case the next two weeks, stream starts now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does it? It appears were throwing Lynn and a bullpen game. I don't have high hopes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can add a “27th man” for the day with the DH, which I assume will be a pitcher who can cover one, perhaps a few, innings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capn12 Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 The pitcher version of Yoan Moncada is back in his old stomping grounds....the IL. Says a lot about how awesome this organization is, when we're throwing Jesse Scholtens, Nick Padilla and Tanner Banks out there, as our pitchers first up from AAA when needed.

If he's back in the minimum he'll still have 10 days to make a few appearances. I do think someone will bet on that arm and the extra control if its not a serious injury. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T R U Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 Lose these two games, hopefully don't take 2/3 from the lousy Cardinals, and then get our cheeks clapped by the Braves and hopefully that will be enough to snuff out any silly ideas about this team making the playoffs. They need to get SOMETHING to help for next season and beyond as far as depth is concerned. Even 2-3 interesting young players for Giolito will be better than him walking in the offseason.

Bob Sacamano Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 (edited) This might be the most interesting trade deadline for the team in like 4-5 years. Considering they did nothing most of those years. Edited July 6, 2023 by Bob Sacamano 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just can't trade Robert right now. You could get the same return for him 2-2.5 years as you could right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't expect him to get traded anytime soon, but there's plenty of reasons to trade him now as opposed to waiting. What if he regresses? Gets injured? If you pull the plug on the team then go all the way, no half measures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t think of a match who could afford him either, but if they are a 4th place team for the next couple years, we will probably be talking about that more seriously in 24 and 25.

He's too valuable to trade. You'd be hoping to get a player of his caliber back and most likely wont. He's under a great contract for someone of his stature and he's just about to turn 26. They should do everything they can do to build around him while he's here, not look to get rid of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Sacamano Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 Unless a team is offering their best 5/6 controllable young MLB ready players/prospects, you hold onto him now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capn12 Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 You don't trade Robert. Most of this roster is expendable, but guys like him aren't going to be easy to find. Matter of fact, to me, the entire outfield stays: 1 because he is cheap and controllable with potential, 1 because he is a legitimate superstar who is signed under value, and one because no one will take his contract for what he provides with 4 years left. Everyone else is on the table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Side Hit Men Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 Detroit, like the White Sox, salvaged one game against Oakland. They also beat Kansas City 2 out of 3, leaving Cleveland as the only team successful from the A. L. Central (1-5). I hope Oakland finishes with an overall winning record against the A. L. Central this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I completely agree. I'd want multiple blue chip top prospects + a few additional top 100s. Only like 1 or 2 teams could even put a prospect package together than begins to make sense for the Sox. And, like I said, he'll still be worth a boatload in 2 years. He's past the point of diminishing returns. 42 minutes ago, T R U said: I wouldn't expect him to get traded anytime soon, but there's plenty of reasons to trade him now as opposed to waiting. What if he regresses? Gets injured? If you pull the plug on the team then go all the way, no half measures. He'll probably get injured sometime in the next 4.5 years, but unless he gets seriously injured I don't think its really going to matter since they control him so long.
