We will have to see where he is by the end of the season but I wouldn’t at all be surprised if he is a non-tender candidate by the end of the year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheets has an .822 OPS and is not a liability at 1B or RF. He's also cheap. There's no reason to ditch him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert: needs to rehab value and prove he's healthy so no point in even talking about this until that (hopefully) happens by mid summer. Moncada: no value, better player than Eloy but with contract situation, no surplus value. Fedde: might get a legit top 100 prospect for him if you package him with Wilson or something. Kopech: no value. Rest of team: no real value. We have the worst collection of MLB "talent" possibly ever assembled and the record reflects it. Maybe with Robert and Moncada healthy we'd have two more wins. We'd still be historically awful. We're not going to jumpstart any sort of rebuild with these guys. Almost all of their core talent crashed and burned. Only a healthy Robert would make the grade. There is no coaching up, just down. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I‘m not sure there’s a team in baseball that could’ve or would’ve paid the prospect price for 4 years of Luis Robert. 2.5-3 could be different though 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This organization smells like a middle school bus just from the guys we added in the last 6 months. Whatever we are doing is the equivalent of spraying Axe Body Spray on the situation instead of actually showering the problem away. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chitownsportsfan Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 If you can do a burger type deal with Sheets, do it. A 2 WAR DH/1B isn't going to put us over the top anytime soon. Try and get a 50 FV type pitcher for him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same, I guess we could only hope one of him or vaughn would turn it around. I'm shocked it's been Sheets so far, but hey, we gotta work with what we are working with. If Vaughn is the DFA candidate come offseason and Shields netted a prospect, fine, whatever. Just move on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the complete incompetence, dysfunction and ineptness of this organization from top to bottom I have a hard time figuring out ANY way this franchise will be competitive over the next two-three years at least. Therefore keeping Robert around while they continue to lose 95-100 games a year is just plain stupid. Get what you can for him while you can (before he seriously injures himself again). If this team was an actual well run organization with a legit change to do something by all means you keep him, he's a great talent. But the Sox aren't close, if JR still owns the team he won't be extended so what good does it do you keeping him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason to keep him is that it's entertainment and we don't have much in that department. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
