Moved to 60-day IL The White Sox transferred Robert (hip) to the 60-day injured list Thursday. Impact Though Robert is electing to forgo surgery after he was diagnosed May 3 with a Grade 3 right hip flexor strain, the outfielder is still facing a recovery timeline of at least eight weeks. As such, the move to the 60-day IL won't have much effect on his return date. Instead, the White Sox made the transaction mainly for the purpose of opening up a spot on the 40-man roster for reliever Ryan Burr, whose contract was selected from Triple-A Charlotte.
