The Chicago White Sox are expected to retain former All-Star outfielder Luis Robert Jr. as the front office has determined that trade offers do not reflect his value. General manager Chris Getz emphasized that Robert's 2023 All-Star production wages against the concerns of his injury history. Despite interest, particularly from the Cincinnati Reds, the offers are not satisfactory, as they undervalue Robert's potential. Given the White Sox's current rebuilding phase, Robert represents their last valuable asset. There is speculation that he may be traded later this season if he remains healthy.
"Getz cannot settle for pennies on the dollar even though it is reported that is what he is being offered."
"Unless LRJ proves he can stay healthy and return to 2023 form, it is a major gamble for a small-market team like the Reds to give up some of their prized prospects."
