The New York Mets are reportedly rethinking a potential trade for Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. after a dismal season so far. Despite being a discussed target, Robert's struggles—hitting .178 with only five home runs—raise concerns about his value in the market. MLB insider Jon Heyman stated that he doubts Robert will be traded if he continues his poor hitting, as teams are less likely to pursue him for anything valuable. Contract considerations and the ongoing disappointing performance of the White Sox further complicate matters for potential trades involving Robert.
"I agree with Luis Robert Jr. If he's hitting .182, he's not going to be wanted. If they trade him, it would just be to unload the contract."
"Luis Robert Jr. is not going to be traded if he's hitting under .200, at least not for anything particularly good."
