Sitting Tuesday, as expected Robert (quadriceps) is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game at Kansas City.
Impact Manager Pedro Grifol previously suggested Chicago was targeting Wednesday for Robert to rejoin the starting nine, so it's no surprise the outfielder will sit Tuesday for the third straight contest due to a right quadriceps cramp. Oscar Colas will shift to center field while Gavin Sheets receives the start in right.

Aiming for Wednesday return White Sox manager Pedro Grifol said Monday that the team is "shooting for maybe Wednesday" for Robert's (quad) return to the lineup, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times rep...
Impact Robert will miss a third straight start Monday with a right quad cramp and is not expected to play Tuesday's either. "We're shooting for maybe Wednesday," Grifol said. "Which would be perfect because Thursday's off and we can go back to his normal schedule Friday. The most important thing is he's way better." It wouldn't be a surprise if Robert is ultimately held out through Wednesday, giving him an extra two days when combined with Thursday's off day. It does appear he'll avoid the injured list, but it might be difficult for fantasy managers to start him this week.

Held out of lineup again Monday Robert (quad) remains out of the lineup for Monday's contest versus the Royals.
Impact Robert will miss a third straight start due to a right quad cramp. If you're looking for a silver lining, the White Sox made a few roster moves Monday and Robert remains on the active roster, which provides hope that he could be ready to play any day now. Trayce Thompson is in center field Monday.

Hoping for Monday return Robert (quad) is hoping to return to the lineup for Monday's game versus the Royals, MLB.com reports.
Impact Robert was a late scratch from the White Sox' lineup each of the last two days due to cramping in his right quad. The issue seems to be relatively minor in nature, but the team will be extra cautious with the star outfielder so it's not a slam dunk that he will be back in action Monday. Oscar Colas has shifted over to center field to cover for Robert's absence.

Slugs 33rd homer Robert went 2-for-4 with a solo home run Saturday in a loss to the Rockies.
Impact Robert continued his impressive campaign with a monstrous 447-foot solo shot in the eighth inning. The outfielder has flashed a tantalizing skill set throughout his career, but until this season he's struggled to stay healthy, topping out at 98 games last year. Robert has been able to mostly shed that issue in 2023, and he's thus emerged as an elite fantasy producer, posting a .273/.326/.568 slash line with 33 homers, 67 RBI, 76 runs and 16 steals over 481 plate appearances. Shohei Ohtani is the only other big-leaguer with at least 30 long balls and 10 thefts so far this season.

Robert has also swiped five bags in that span while maintaining a .318 average -- elite fantasy production across nearly every category.

Back in action Tuesday Robert (finger) is starting in center field and batting third against the Cubs on Tuesday.
Impact Robert was out of the lineup for the entirety of the three-game series versus Milwaukee over the weekend due to a sprained right pinky finger, but he'll rejoin the starting nine for Tuesday's series opener.

Impact Robert hasn't played since leaving Wednesday's game against the Yankees with a sprained right pinky finger.

Expect any minor issue to be treated with caution down the stretch. Oscar Colas slides to center field Saturday, with Gavin Sheets starting in right.
