#Orioles tie it in the 9th via Ryan Noda’s single…

#Cubs

[Chris Shaw @ChrisShawChi]

To add to all of that, contenders WANTED him on their teams. That alone should show you what other teams think of his worth.

In two years, if they traded him, Sox fans would want him back.

Good for Getz holding firm to their price and not dropping it. #WhiteSox

[Chris Shaw @ChrisShawChi]

I really don’t understand the gripes from #WhiteSox fans about keeping Luis Robert. He is hitting .352 with 12 RBI and 6 SB since July 1.

Clearly the asking price wasn’t there - so why give up a piece of your future (yes future) for prospects you weren’t happy with.

[Chris Shaw @ChrisShawChi]

Trevor Rogers threw a complete game - 4 hit effort in the #Orioles loss to the #Cubs.

[Chris Shaw @ChrisShawChi]

To add to that spending, I think the #WhiteSox will sign a free agent for the new franchise record - which really isn’t very hard to beat.

[Chris Shaw @ChrisShawChi]

Rather boring deadline on both sides of Chicago, with neither team making trades that impact their future.

I will say this though - Luis Robert Jr. will have his option picked up and the #Cubs will go all in on a Tucker extension. #WhiteSox

Robert Jr. stays.

[Jeff Passan @JeffPassan]

The Tampa Bay Rays are acquiring Adrian Houser from the White Sox, source tells ESPN.

[Chris Shaw @ChrisShawChi]

If the #Cubs stay put the rest of the deadline, I think a Kyle Tucker extension becomes much more likely.

[Chris Shaw @ChrisShawChi]

@HockeyNailgun And you are at 6, guess I’m beating you at that!

[Chris Shaw @ChrisShawChi]

Source confirms: Mike Tauchman and Davis Martin will not be traded this deadline.

Cannot say the same for Adrian Houser and Luis Robert Jr. #WhiteSox

[Chris Shaw @ChrisShawChi]

I will say this though, I think Robert Jr. stays still - but the #WhiteSox are certainly hearing all offers.

[Chris Shaw @ChrisShawChi]

@capihood Their offers were not good enough, hesitated to improve them and teams took other offers.

[Chris Shaw @ChrisShawChi]

#Cubs have hesitated to pull several triggers and have now missed out on majority of the big names this deadline.

[Chris Shaw @ChrisShawChi]

The Mason Miller deal and gutting of the Padres farm tells me they are most likely out on Luis Robert Jr. #WhiteSox

[Jeff Passan @JeffPassan]

BREAKING: The San Diego Padres are acquiring closer Mason Miller and starter J.P. Sears from the A's, sources tell ESPN.

[Chris Shaw @ChrisShawChi]

Luis Robert Jr. is really gaining traction - exactly what the #WhiteSox wanted.

Three contenders, with relatively solid farm systems are now seemingly in a bidding war.

[Chris Shaw @ChrisShawChi]

Source: The #Cubs were expecting the market to be expensive, but this is even more than they were prepared for.

I would not expect any big deals today from their end, rather more Soroka type additions.

[Chris Shaw @ChrisShawChi]

#Cubs really liked Bieber, didn’t want to give up the prospects they were asking for.

[Jeff Passan @JeffPassan]

The Toronto Blue Jays are finalizing a trade to acquire right-hander Shane Bieber from the Cleveland Guardians, sources tell ESPN. The Jays have been looking for another starter, and they get one in the former AL Cy Young winner. On the news: @jonmorosi.

Braden Montgomery went 0-5 with 4 strikeouts in his Double-A debut. #WhiteSox
