I’m sure they learned last year that they need to be more aggressive come the deadline… and the “health” of their rotation isn’t helping at all. Flaherty excellent this year so far...that has to sting. https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/stats/_/id/31053/kyle-gibson Kyle Gibson too.

Their GM rocked that s%*# perfectly and still has ammo to trade for more. Yes. I’m incredibly petty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeC Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 Not sure how it's a difficult concept that you have to have a collection of talent so that you have good players playing together. You can't spread out your talented players over time and expect to field good teams. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joejoesox Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 I was thinking about Robert/Crochet this morning and I really do think both are getting traded Robert definitely,just my seeing how he's clearly playing hurt based on how he's looked, his mobility has decreased for sure, I think they're trying to showcase him, otherwise they would've been more conservative with his playtime crochet I always felt was as good as gone, but Robert I was 50/50 on 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely any GM interested in him would want to see him hitting again and mobile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely any GM interested in him would want to see him hitting again and mobile. there's a chance he could get hurt again before the TDL, but apparently they're willing to roll the dice that he stays healthy enough to stay on the field until then. if you watch him play he's clearly not fully healthy, guys are taking extra bases on him routinely because of his lack of speed plus his arm sucks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kind of wondered if they might be in a Moncada kind of situation where his debut went so badly that it took just enough shine off of him where Baltimore might reconsider him.

Or the Cubs with Canario, Tauchman, Busch and Crow-Armstrong. White Sox (still) have pretty much zero (young) quality depth capable of producing on offense. Unless you're a huge believer in Brooks Baldwin... PCA is this decade's Brian Anderson. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I had to pick which one I think is more likely to be moved it's Luis mainly because Crochet isn't likely to still be effective in October for a long playoff run 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was supposed to be almost a sure thing prospect and he hasn’t hit in the majors.

At the rate the Cubs are going they'll be selling guys off just like the Sox in three weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
