The Chicago White Sox could have an ideal trading partner for closer David Robertson in the New York Mets. With the Mets losing its current closer Jeurys Familia to suspension to start next season, the White Sox could trade Robertson to New York.
According to Kristie Ackert of the New York Daily News, the Mets haven’t privately ruled out targeting Robertson in a traded. With current premier closers off the market in Aroldis Chapman, Mark Melancon and Kenley Jensen, Robertson is a solid trade candidate this offseason.
Ackert mentioned in her mailbag with Mets fans that the White Sox would most likely seek a return including Michael Conforto in exchange for Robertson.
