The Chicago White Sox are coming off one of the worst seasons in Major League Baseball history.
After finishing with a record of 41-121, the White Sox went into the offseason with plenty of problems to fix.
The two best players for the White Sox in 2024 arguably were starting pitcher Garrett Crochet and outfielder Luis Robert Jr.
The White Sox already traded away Crochet in a deal with the Boston Red Sox, and one MLB analyst recently revealed what they are asking for in a possible trade for Robert.
“What the White Sox want in return for Luis Robert is they want two legitimate, top five prospects in your organization,” Jim Bowden said, via Foul Territory.

Bowden revealed that the White Sox want the same return for Robert that they got for Crochet.
Although this is reportedly the asking price, Bowden also mentions that the only offers Chicago has gotten include only one top prospect.
Robert has played all five seasons of his MLB career with the White Sox.
In 2024, Robert played in 100 games and batted .224 with 14 home runs, 35 RBIs and a .657 OPS.
Although Robert’s numbers weren’t great, that could partially be attributed to the overall team performance, along with injuries.
Robert will be a name to keep an eye on to see if a move is made before the start of the 2025 season.
