In a surprising comeback victory against the Houston Astros, the Chicago White Sox demonstrated resilience led by players Luis Robert Jr. and Edgar Quero. However, despite this spark of optimism for the team's future, an impending trade of Luis Robert Jr. looms large. The reasoning centers around his potential unwillingness to sign an extension due to agent Scott Boras, concerns over Jerry Reinsdorf's willingness to pay market price, and the overall strategy of maximizing value before Robert's potential free agency. This context suggests that a trade is essential for the White Sox's long-term plan.
The White Sox are going to trade Luis Robert Jr. at some point this season.
Luis Robert is a Scott Boras client, and Boras takes his guys to free agency.
If a player is not going to realistically be on your next playoff team, it is always better to trade them while they still have value.
Robert is a streaky player, but he can beat teams pretty much by himself with his glove, speed, and bat.
