Launches three-run homer Robert went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Saturday's victory over the Angles.

Impact The White Sox held a slim 1-0 lead in the fifth inning of Saturday's contest, but Robert gave them some breathing room with his first long ball since April 13. It was a quiet first month for Robert, but with his his groin injury presumably behind him, he could start heating up as the weather does.

Hitless in return Robert went 0-for-4 with a strikeout Friday against the Angels.

Impact Robert returned to the lineup after a six-game absence caused by a groin injury. Prior to being sidelined, he had hit exclusively second in the order, though he dropped to fifth Friday. Despite collecting only nine hits in his first 49 plate appearances this season, Robert has still scored seven runs and swiped five bags. The biggest potential concern is that the injury lessens his activity on the basepaths, though there is currently no indication that he will be affected by the issue in the long term.

Returns to lineup Robert (groin) is starting Friday's game against the Angels, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.

The 24-year-old hit .205 with two homers, seven runs, three RBI and five stolen bases over 11 appearances prior to his absence.

Could return Friday Manager Tony La Russa is hopeful that Robert (groin) will return to the lineup Friday against the Angels, Vinnie Duber of NBC Sports Chicago reports.

Impact Robert is out of the lineup for a sixth consecutive matchup Thursday against the Royals, but he participated in pregame warmups and looked good. The White Sox have remained insistent that Robert is day-to-day, and he seems to be trending toward a Friday return.

Still out with groin injury Robert (groin) remains out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Royals.

Impact AJ Pollock will pick up a start in center field in place of Robert, who will be on the bench for the sixth game in a row while he continues to experience groin discomfort. Given that the groin issue has lingered for several days, Robert likely would have been placed on the injured list already in most instances, but the depleted White Sox appear prepared to wait out his absence while the team remains without two of its other top hitters in Yoan Moncada (oblique) and Eloy Jimenez (hamstring).

Still bothered by groin White Sox manager Tony La Russa said Robert continued to feel "a little discomfort" with his groin while moving side to side, which is why the outfielder isn't included in the line...

Impact Manager Rick Hahn said a day earlier that Robert was on track to put an end to a four-game absence Wednesday, but that ultimately won't materialize after the 24-year-old didn't feel 100 percent during his most recent workout. La Russa reiterated Wednesday that Robert won't be cleared to rejoin the lineup until he's able to do all baseball activities without discomfort, so a stint on the injured list could still be in the range of outcomes for the star outfielder. Adam Engel will draw the start in center field Wednesday and is expected to serve as the primary option at the position if Robert misses additional time.

Not starting Wednesday Robert (groin) remains out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Royals.

Impact Though general manager Rick Hahn said Tuesday that he expected Roberts to be back in the lineup Wednesday, the star outfielder will ultimately miss out on a fifth consecutive start on account of a groin strain. The White Sox haven't indicated that Robert is dealing with any sort of setback in his recovery, but a trip to the injured list is growing likelier with each additional day that he's out of the lineup. Adam Engel will draw the nod in center field in place of Robert, who can be viewed as day-to-day until the team indicates otherwise.

Expected back Wednesday Robert (groin) is expected to return to the lineup Wednesday against Kansas City, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.

Impact Robert is out of the lineup for the fourth straight game due to a strained groin, but it doesn't appear as though his streak of absences will stretch to five. The White Sox didn't want him to play in a night game Tuesday followed by a day game Wednesday, so they'll elect to have him only play in Wednesday's contest.

Still sidelined Robert (groin) remains on the bench for Tuesday's game against the Royals, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Impact Robert exited Thursday's game against the Guardians with what was called a minor groin strain. He didn't play at all during the weekend series against Minnesota, as reports from Friday indicated would be the case, but the fact that he's still not ready to go following Monday's off day is a potentially worrisome sign. He's yet to be placed on the injured list, however, and the White Sox demoted center fielder Adam Haseley on Tuesday, which could indicate that Robert is expected to return shortly. Adam Engel will handle center field Tuesday.
