Exits early with injury Robert was removed from Friday's game against the Royals with an apparent right leg injury, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

Impact Robert came up limping after hitting a double in the ninth inning of Friday's contest, and he was reluctant to put any weight on his right leg as he hopped toward second base. Losing the 26-year-old slugger would be a huge blow to a White Sox lineup that has already struggled to begin the year, but more information on his status will come after the team's medical staff takes a closer look at him.

Healthy heading into 2024 Robert is fully healthy in spring training after his 2023 season was ended by a knee injury, Vinnie Duber of AllCHGO.com reports.

Impact Robert was mostly healthy across a full season for the first time in four big-league campaigns and racked up 590 plate appearances. He narrowly missed a 40/20 season and should be in line for another dynamic stat line in 2024 so long as he can remain on the field. While the White Sox may deal many of their remaining veteran players as they continue to rebuild, Robert is expected to stay on the roster as he is under team control for four more seasons.

Knee injury ends season Robert was placed on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with a mild left MCL sprain, Vinnie Duber of AllCHGO.com reports.

Impact Robert suffered the injury during Sunday's win over the Red Sox and an MRI on Monday revealed the sprain. While the injury is considered relatively minor, it's enough to end Robert's season with so little time left. It was a marvelous 2023 campaign for Robert, who stayed healthy enough to play 145 games and slash .264/.315/.542 with 38 home runs and 20 stolen bases.

Could be headed to IL Robert (knee) could be placed on the 10-day injured list, ending his season, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Impact Van Schouwen hears that Tyler Naquin is expected to join the White Sox, which would seem to point to a stint on the IL for Robert, who exited Sunday's game in Boston with a left knee injury. The injury isn't believed to be serious, but with so little time remaining in the season, there would be little incentive to push Robert to return. If his campaign is indeed over, Robert would finish having slashed .264/.315/.542 with 38 home runs and 20 stolen bases.

Dealing with sore knee Robert was removed from Sunday's game against the Red Sox with right knee soreness, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

Impact Robert suffered the injury on a slide into second base after he worked a walk during the first inning Sunday. The 26-year-old outfielder will be evaluated Monday after the team returns to Chicago and should be considered day-to-day in the meantime.

SEPTEMBER 24, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Departs with apparent injury Robert was removed from Sunday's game at Boston with an apparent knee injury, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Impact Robert walked during the first inning but had an awkward slide into second base, and the training staff appeared to be checking out his knee before exiting the contest. The 26-year-old had regularly been plagued by injuries over the previous two seasons, but he's stayed healthy in 2023 with a career-high 145 games played.

Hits 311-foot difference-maker Robert went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 1-0 win over Boston.

Impact Robert provided the thunder in Saturday's rain-soaked pitcher's duel, tucking a low liner just fair of Pesky's Pole in Boston for a ninth-inning solo homer that proved to be the game-winner. The ball left his bat at 95.4 mph and wouldn't have been a home run in any of the other 29 big-league ballparks. Regardless, it's a home run in the box score, bringing Robert's season total to 38 while hitting .264 with 36 doubles, 80 RBI, 90 runs scored and 19 steals across 143 games (585 plate appearances).

Two steals in Friday's loss Robert went 1-for-4 with a run scored and two stolen bases in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Red Sox.

Impact He nearly manufactured Chicago's first run of the night by himself, swiping second and third base after a one-out single in the sixth inning before Andrew Vaughn brought him home on a grounder that Rafael Devers couldn't corral. The steals were Robert's first in September, but he's now one pilfer away from his first career 20-20 campaign -- through 143 games, he's slashing .264/.315/.539 with 37 homers, 19 steals, 79 RBI and 89 runs.

Three hits, homer in win Robert went 3-for-4 with a double, a solo home run and an additional run scored in Tuesday's loss against Washington.

Impact It's the first multi-hit game since Aug. 30 for Robert, who's now 4-for-9 with a pair of homers in his last two games after going 0-for-16 with 10 strikeouts in his previous four contests. The 26-year-old outfielder appears to be rounding back into form down the stretch. Robert's been a bright spot overall for Chicago this season, slashing .265/.316/.543 with 37 homers, 88 runs scored, 79 RBI and 17 steals across 584 plate appearances.

SEPTEMBER 20, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Tallies 36th homer Robert went 1-for-5 with a three-run home run Monday against the Nationals.

Impact Robert popped his first home run of the month and 36th of the season when he took Joan Adon deep in the fifth inning. While he's enjoyed a very strong season, Robert is closing the campaign in a poor stretch as he's maintained just a .163 batting average while striking out at a 34.6 percent clip across his last 15 games.
