3 Luis Robert trades that could kickstart the White Sox long-awaited rebuild
Many in baseball expected the Chicago White Sox to trade both Luis Robert Jr. and Garrett Crochet at the trade deadline this year. But, Chicago held onto both players as they weren’t getting the trade returns that they expected to get.
Now, this offseason, Robert is expected to be dealt while Crochet is a bit of a question mark.
Robert, 27, slashed .224/.278/.379 last season. It was a down year across the board for the young outfielder. On the bright side, Robert stole 23 bases in 100 games, reaching a new career-high stolen base mark. Robert proved in 2023 that he has the potential to be a game wrecker. That year, he slashed .264/.315/.542 with 38 home runs and 20 stolen bases. He was one of the premier power hitters in the game.
Now, he’s set to be dealt to a new team in order to get a fresh start.
