Robert (quad) remains out of the lineup for Monday's contest versus the Royals.
EDGE Analysis
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.

Robert (quad) is hoping to return to the lineup for Monday's game versus the Royals, MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
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.

EDGE Analysis
Robert was a late scratch from Saturday's lineup as well due to cramping in his right quad, and it appears the issue has returned ahead of Sunday's contest. Oscar Colas will enter the lineup to replace Robert in center field and bat eighth.

Robert was a late scratch from Saturday's game versus the Tigers due to a right quad cramp, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Robert will probably be fine if it is indeed just a cramp, but he'll be re-evaluated Sunday to make sure. Gavin Sheets entered the lineup as Robert's replacement, with Oscar Colas sliding over to center field.

Robert went 2-for-5 with a solo home run Wednesday against the Orioles.
EDGE Analysis
Robert completed an excellent month with his sixth homer of August. In the same span, he maintained a .280 batting average and also swiped five bags. Robert entered the campaign with 36 home runs across 222 career games, and he now has 35 across only 127 contests on the season.

Robert is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.
EDGE Analysis
Oscar Colas will shift over from right field to cover center while Robert sits for the first time since Aug. 13. With a .265 average, 34 home runs and 16 stolen bases in 124 games this season, Robert has been one of the few bright spots for the White Sox in the midst of a 51-79 season.

Robert went 2-for-4 with a solo home run Saturday in a loss to the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
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'd 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 (finger) is starting in center field and batting third against the Cubs on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
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. The 26-year-old has hit well in 24 games since the All-Star break with five home runs, eight steals, 14 RBI and an .848 OPS in 89 at-bats.

Robert (finger) isn't in the White Sox's lineup Sunday against the Brewers.

Robert (finger) remains on the bench for Saturday's game against Milwaukee.
EDGE Analysis
Robert hasn't played since leaving Wednesday's game against the Yankees with a sprained right pinky finger. With the White Sox sitting 12.5 games out of a playoff spot, the team has no reason to risk anything happening to its best player, especially given Robert's spotty health track record. 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.
