Robertson (3-2) gave up one run on two hits in the ninth to blow the save Tuesday against the Royals but still came up with the win.
EDGE Analysis
Robertson is now an underwhelming 27-of-32 (84.4 percent) in save opportunities with a brutal 4.08 ERA. Given his excellent stuff, his 52 strikeouts in 46.1 innings, and his history of success, Robertson should have a long leash, but his combination of poor control (4.5 BB/9) and susceptibility to the long ball (1.2 HR/9) are an extremely bad combination for the ninth inning, and there's little in his performance this year that suggests he's the lockdown closer he was expected to be heading into 2016.

Robertson worked around a leadoff single in a scoreless inning against the Tigers on Thursday to earn his 26th save of the season.
EDGE Analysis
Justin Upton reached to start the frame, but Robertson then induced a double play and got Jarrod Saltalamacchia to pop out to nail down the win for the White Sox. Robertson seems to have settled down after back-to-back blown save opportunities last month (including a three-homer disaster back on July 24), although he's managed just three strikeouts in his last five appearances.

Robertson recorded his 25th save of the season with a near perfect 10th inning against the Twins on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
The right-hander threw eight of his nine pitches for strikes and retired the Twins in order. Robertson has struggled to live up to his hype in Chicago, but he's still a decent fantasy option, particularly for owners who need strikeouts. He's 25-for-29 in save opportunities with a 4.15 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 51 strikeouts in 43.1 innings.

Robertson threw a scoreless ninth to record his 24th save Tuesday against the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
Robertson desperately needed to convert this save, as he had allowed seven runs on four home runs in blowing his previous two attempts. Tuesday, he struck out a batter and needed just 15 pitches for a 1-2-3 inning, but he'll need to have a few more uneventful outings before owners begin to trust him again.

Robertson (2-2) allowed three runs on three hits while striking out one over one inning to blow his fourth save of the year, but was credited with a win Sunday against the Tigers.
EDGE Analysis
Robertson was protecting a three-run lead, but gave up three solo homers in his one inning of work. However, he had fortune on his side when the White Sox scored in the bottom of the frame to give him his second win of 2016. He now has four outings this year in which he's allowed at least three runs, and his ERA has ballooned to a season-high 4.43.

Robertson (0-2) allowed four runs on three hits and a walk and got just two outs as he took the loss in a blown save Monday against Seattle.
EDGE Analysis
Robertson was 13-for-13 in save opportunities since May 9 against Texas, but Adam Lind touched him up for a three-run walk-off home run to put that streak to bed. Robertson's ERA is up to 4.14, largely as a result of two blowups -- Monday's outing and his six earned runs allowed May 28 against Kansas City combine to account for 59 percent of the earned runs he has allowed this season.

Robertson (leg) said he feels great and is ready to go for Friday's game against the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
He was unavailable for the team's final two games before the break due to a high left leg strain, but it seems Robertson has put the injury behind him and is ready to return to the closer role. Control issues plagued Robertson throughout the first half but he still managed to go 23-for-25 in save opportunities, and he has shown some improvement with his control of late with one walk in his last five appearances.

Robertson has a high left leg strain and will not be available Sunday, MLB.com's Scott Merkin reports.
EDGE Analysis
He was unavailable for Saturday's game, although that was not public knowledge until after the game. Nate Jones, who got the save Saturday, figures to be in line for save opportunities in the short term. Look for Robertson's status to be updated in the coming days.

Robertson is dealing with a left leg injury, and he's unlikely to be available Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Robertson did not pitch in Saturday's game against the Braves, and at this point the expectation is that he'll be shelved Sunday as the White Sox head into the All-Star break. A clearer diagnosis has not been provided, but Robertson will likely undergo further testing later Saturday.

Robertson was not used in Saturday's save situation because he is dealing with an unspecified leg injury, the Daily Herald's Scot Gregor reports.
EDGE Analysis
Instead the White Sox turned to Nate Jones, who recorded four outs en route to his third save of the season. It is unclear what exactly Robertson is dealing with, and his status will be updated when more news is available.
