Bleacher Report analyst predicts the Royals will acquire White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. in a trade, sending two promising prospects to Chicago.
The Los Angeles Dodgers have a strong roster but have been linked to players who could further enhance their team. One such player is Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr., who experienced a dip in performance this year but shone brightly in 2023. He could fill a key outfield role for the Dodgers for several seasons. However, Bleacher Report's Zachary Rymer believes Robert won't end up with the Dodgers.
Instead, Rymer predicts the Kansas City Royals will acquire Robert from the White Sox, even suggesting a potential trade package. Rymer proposes the Royals send RHP Ben Kudrna (No. 3 prospect) and OF Gavin Cross (No. 6 prospect) to Chicago in exchange for Robert. Rymer argues that the Royals need offensive support, particularly in center field, and Robert's presence would be a significant boost. While the Royals' prospect pool isn't extensive, Rymer suggests they shouldn't hesitate to make a bold move, especially after their unexpected playoff run this year. The Royals-White Sox trade scenario is intriguing, despite the infrequency of interdivisional trades. The proposed deal would see the Royals acquire a young, talented outfielder in Robert, potentially propelling them even further in 2025.
