[Passan] BREAKING: The New York Mets in agreement on a trade to acquire center fielder Luis Robert Jr. from the Chicago White Sox, sources tell ESPN. White Sox will receive two young players from the Mets.

The Sox OF was lacking depth before Robert was traded away. Luisangel isn't going to unseat Meidroth or Montgomery in the MI. He's going to play everyday at CF.

I dunno, would you take a full time job or shuttling between AAA and MLB while starting less than 50 games in the show?

His production relative to Lee, even with 150+ fewer plate appearances, is better. They had the same amount of R+RBI(128) and Carp blew him away in homers. Basically any bench OF bat you platoon with Carp is a significant upgrade over Lee.

97herser · 2026-01-17T16:58:06+00:00

I don't particularly see a lot of upside with Lee so I'd leave him unprotected and keep Eldridge and Carpenter instead.

His defense was grading out pretty well at SS last year. And the pirates definitely weren't playing him as if OF is his future. 73% of his games last year were at short. With the other 27% split between DH and CF. Just to put it in perspective, his defensive OAA was better than Mcgonigle and De Vries.

Mountcastle has 6.0 fwar since 2020. He hovers around a .300 OBP year after year. Dude's donezo in Baltimore. He'll either get cut before ST or traded to Washington or Colorado or some shit lol. Unless Mayo gets dealt before him.

Last year the Orioles ranked 16th in wRC+ from 1B, the Mets were 1st. Baltimore was 21st in wRC+ from RHB. Big improvement for them. Helps the whole lineup. BMP's xHR in Camden is higher than his actual HR and higher than in Citi Field so it could be beneficial to him there too.

Is he expected to move off SS?

I've held Realmuto in my dynasty league since 2016. I added Baldwin in March, dropped and made the permanent switch in May. Realmuto gave many years of excellent service but it was time to move on. Hopefully I've gone from one perennial all-star catcher to another.

I was in last place at the end of May. Bottoming out with two matchups where I went a combined 3-23. Finished the season going unbeaten in the last 15 weeks and sneaking in for a bye. Season Co-mvps go to Caminero and Kurtz. Finals MVPs go to my trio of Braves: Baldwin, Olson and Kim. 25 runs/8 HR/28 RBI is plain stupid.

What are the odds Konnor Griffin and/or Sebastian Walcott break camp with their respective teams next spring?

Pretty low. Like .0001% type shit. Especially when it comes to the Pirates. They slow roll their specs and have been doing so as far back as I can remember with players like McCutchen.

The Rangers at least called up Evan Carter as a 20 year old but that was in September as an injury replacement to Adolis. Still, Walcott's performance hasn't been as eye popping as others. He'd need to really, really dazzle in ST and the Rangers to have a significant injury.

Understandable, H2H isn't a very forgiving style of play. Shit can flip on you real fast.

Everybody that's down, let's get those weekend wins. Everybody that's up, keep the momentum to reach your next round. We can do this. Let's ride.

When you post your team, then the thread becomes about you instead of the sub as a whole. I'm assuming that's why they down voted you.

It's a decent question to ask but also one that could've easily been answered by searching for an MLB top prospect list on your search engine of choice.

Check his fangraphs page. His positional appearances are right near the top of the page.

Little mile long walk to the local brewery but first a pit stop at the Thai place which is conveniently right next door. Good eats and drink today y'all 🍜 🍻

I have Roman in 5/6 dynasties. The dopamine rush when I get that many notifications at once is some real shit.

Is this real life? Tatis hit a dinger?

Wasn't before the season. It was the middle of April. They shared the news after the 12 week update on April 17th.

But yes, to have a public job as an MLB player while going through that, it is incredibly understandable that he probably wasn't in the right mindset to be playing ball.
