The Cincinnati Reds have been connected to Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. since before the season began. Isn't it about time for the Reds and White Sox to find some common ground on a mutually beneficial trade package before the July 31 deadline passes?
Robert is in the final guaranteed year of the six-year, $50 million contract extension he signed with the White Sox in 2020. Though he's played better of late, Robert still owns a paltry .206/.292/.344 slash line with 10 home runs and 40 RBI, and the White Sox won't be able to get much in return for his services over the second-half of the season.
