The Pittsburgh Pirates have an exceptional pitching rotation led by Paul Skenes, the recently minted Rookie of the Year, but they lack offensive strength. To bolster their chances, they must trade for Luis Robert Jr. from the struggling White Sox, who are undergoing a significant roster overhaul after a dismal season. The Pirates' competitive advantage lies in their surplus of right-handed pitcher prospects, which could entice Chicago for Robert's value. This trade can provide the Pirates an essential offensive upgrade as they aim for the playoffs for the first time since 2015.
