The White Sox will have a big decision to make on outfielder Luis Robert Jr. as the Winter Meetings approach next week. Though general manager Chris Getz has thrown cold water on the idea that the White Sox are shopping Robert, many around the league believe this will be the time the White Sox move him. ESPN’s Jeff Passan mentioned Robert as one of his 25 best trade candidates earlier this week, and listed the Giants, Reds, Mets, and Phillies among the best fits for a trade. Let’s look at what a potential trade could look like with each of these teams:
Trade #1:
White Sox send: OF Luis Robert, LHP Tyler Gilbert, cash
Mets send: 3B Brett Baty, INF Luisangel Acuna, RHP R.
