Robert easily could be this guy this time next year though. He has basically unlimited ceiling.

There is no way this is true.

He is not even the best player on the Sox, maybe not even in the top 3 on the Sox.

Its absolutely true. He's a frontline starting pitcher, bonafide ace and would've gotten serious Cy Young attention if the Sox didn't suck literal dicks.

Hendricks has had better years than Giolito just had. So has Lester and Darvish.

Lester will end up with the best career.

A seven game series today? Baez.

A seven game series two years from now? Robert.

He had a great year and is a good pitcher, but no one really even knows if last year was real or not.

And on top of that the best player on a team or in a city is not going to be a pitcher.

Baez is the answer right now, but it could be Eloy or Robert if things go well for them.

It wasn't a flash in the pan if you watch the Caller Bob hurl. He was lights out, there was no luck to his game. He beat people upside the head with his stuff.

If Baez is the answer, you have a shitty group of players. People get woozy over the flashy plays and miss all the holes in his game, which became more glaring when he was moved to the tougher defensive position.

Baez isn't even the best SS in this city. It's ridiculous that the AL batting champion would get overlooked in comparison.

Everyone jumping on Robert "by the end of the season" needs to slow their roll as well. It may be true by the end of 2021.

Yoan Moncada is the best player in this city. Eloy Jimenez will be the best at the end of 2020

Moncada clearly won the best offensive player in the city. He struggled at 3rd early but then inexplicably got great. I still worry about the looking for walks. Cuz I want to win on the scoreboard and not in the scorebook.
