It's the MLB offseason, so it's time for the Chicago White Sox to once again stir the rumor mill pot by dangling Luis Robert Jr. in trade talks.
With all due respect to the talented-yet-oft-injured outfielder, the juice simply isn't worth the squeeze with Robert anymore. He's owed $20 million in 2026 (and has a club option for 2027 worth $20 million). Considering he hit .223/.297/.364 (84 wRC+) this past season, it's hard to argue for the 28-year-old outfielder being a net-positive value on his current contract.
And yet, that hasn't stopped multiple MLB teams from reportedly contacting the White Sox about his availability.
