As the MLB trade deadline approaches, speculation mounts about potential trades, especially between the New York Mets and Chicago White Sox regarding center fielder Luis Robert. Reports suggest the White Sox are interested in Mets pitching prospect Blake Tidwell. However, the Mets' surplus of outfielders makes acquiring Robert problematic, despite his impressive defensive metrics. Even with player injuries, New York still has numerous available outfield options. This complexity, combined with the high asking price for Robert, may prevent the trade from materializing before the deadline.
The Mets already started the season with too many outfielders. Even with injuries, they have ample options in the outfield, negating a trade for Robert.
Luis Robert Jr. shows great defensive metrics, but the Mets' crowded outfield situation makes a trade less likely despite his value as a player.
