In Luis Robert Jr.‘s favor, after I was typing the title up, I wrote Luis Robert Hr. It should be a very good signal that I slipped up and altered Jr. to Hr. That’s the place the positives are gonna have to finish. Seemed up Luis Robert Jr. on final yr’s Participant Rater to see what sort of worth he gave to the individuals who rostered him final yr and are you holding onto your hat? That’s not a hat, that’s a helmet with two beer cans on each side. So, final yr, I’ll offer you one guess on Luis Robert Jr., was he on the Participant Rater larger or decrease than 348th general? Bzzt, wrongo! He was at precisely 348 general. Hey, one love, but additionally: What the eff? He was barely much less useful than Jonah Heim. Barely worse than Gavin Lux. Barely worse than Alec Marsh. That’s not even the subpar however rosterable outfielder, Marsh with the beard! He was much less useful than Jakob Junis. I’m sorry, I want to sit down down on that one. I additionally want to sit down down as a result of I’m inside a Waymo and there’s individuals shaking the automobile screaming, “We’ll kill you when you don’t come out proper now.” That is critical. Uh, that is critical about Luis Robert Jr., I imply. These guys with baseball bats will cease smashing this Waymo quickly sufficient. I ponder if they may train bat pace to Luis Robert Jr. Hmm, it’s prolly higher to not open the window and ask. So, what can we anticipate from Luis Robert Jr. for 2025 fantasy baseball and what makes him overrated?
Luis Robert Jr.’s being drafted round seventieth general. I can see making an attempt for the bounce again, however he’s being drafted round Shota Imanaga. An ace or a man who gave Jakob Junis a run for his cash final yr? (A runis for his monis?) Y’all are significantly tripping, and I’m not speaking about your untied Hokas. Final yr, Luis Robert Jr. went 47/14/35/.224/23 in 393 ABs. Hilarious. You discover I haven’t known as him LouBob or Pantera or no matter. Dude doesn’t deserve a nickname. You need to earn that shizz. Final yr, 45 gamers had 82 runs. He had 82 runs and RBIs mixed. 82 RuBIs! With 400 plate appearances because the cutoff, he had the 181st worst runs within the league. Solely method he was getting runs final yr was after consuming at Taco Bell. He hit 1st, 2nd and third within the lineup for all however one sport! I’m howling. Have you learnt how dangerous that’s? He hit third for 205 ABs and hit .210. Perfection. Is it too early for the decision to the Corridor of Fame? Dude is making historical past. Not historical past, not herstory, he’s making Worstory. Once more, if he had been getting into a spot for a bounce again? Possibly! Within the high 70? Literal marbles in peoples’ heads.
I do know what you’re pondering, the White Sox had been traditionally dangerous final yr, however they are going to be higher. First off, hiya, Chris Getz! Thanks for studying! As a result of he’s the one one pondering that. They went out and signed Michael Ann Taylor for his pantsuits and that made them higher? Critically, I’m asking as a result of if I take a look at their depth chart I’ll get sick. May Lenyn Sosa shield Luis Robert Jr. within the order? Not as a result of he’s good, however so I could make Russian Revolution jokes as a result of I’m studying a Russian historical past e-book that’s 4,000 pages lengthy and I have to justify it. Sorry, I hear the White Sox signed Austin Slater. Whew, Saved by the Bell! Luis Robert Jr. had a 33.2% Okay%, .310 BABIP and hit .224. These numbers suck. What’s he gonna hit if he will get unfortunate on BABIP? .175? Ya know what, in equity to him, he probably doesn’t need to play for the White Sox, so he’s unmotivated. I don’t blame him! However I additionally don’t need him enjoying for my fantasy crew.
