Top MLB reporter: Teams Will 'Laugh At' Luis Robert Jr. If He Makes This Demand
"Luis Robert Jr.'s trade value is currently so low that the White Sox are willing to pay part of his $15 million salary. His performance has significantly declined from his All-Star days, hitting just .190 this season."
"Despite past potential, Luis Robert is now seen as a rental player, with teams unlikely to pick up his option for 2026 and 2027 after his injury-affected seasons."
Luis Robert Jr. is experiencing a significant decline in performance, currently batting .190. The Chicago White Sox recognize his diminished trade value, leading them to consider covering a portion of his $15 million salary to facilitate a trade. At the same time, the prospective acquiring team will likely view Robert as a rental, particularly considering his club options for 2026 and 2027 are now in question. Though he performed well against left-handed pitchers, teams should refrain from assuming he can return to All-Star form outside of Chicago.
