Robert went 1-for-5 with two runs scored and a stolen base Sunday against the Tigers.
EDGE Analysis
Robert hit a single in his first at-bat and immediately stole second base before coming around to score. He reached base on a fielder's choice in his next plate appearance, resulting in his second run scored of the game. Robert has only one extra-base hit through 13 plate appearances early in the 2022 campaign, but he has two stolen bases and has yet to strikeout.

Robert confirmed Sunday that he's feeling 100 percent for spring training after he dealt with back tightness during the White Sox's postseason run, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
A Grade 3 right hip flexor injury sidelined Robert for the majority of the 2021 campaign, but he returned to action in early August and was productive down the stretch before the back issue surfaced in the ALDS matchup with the Astros. Robert was forced to exit early in the White Sox's series-ending Game 4 loss, but he told reporters Sunday that he would have been ready to go for big-league camp in February had the MLB lockout not thwarted those plans. Now healthy again, Robert should be locked in as a key cog in a loaded White Sox lineup, with his combination of speed, power and contact skills making him a worthy selection in the early rounds of drafts.

Robert left Tuesday's game versus the Astros early with right leg tightness.
EDGE Analysis
The outfielder appeared to pull up lame while running for a fly ball in the sixth inning and was replaced in center field by Adam Engel prior to the top of the seventh. The severity of the injury is not yet known, but it is a big blow to a White Sox lineup that is facing elimination.

Robert will move up to the three hole for Game 4 of the ALDS on Tuesday against the Astros.
EDGE Analysis
He hit fifth in Game 1 against Lance McCullers, but he'll be bumped up a couple spots for his second matchup against the power righty, bumping Jose Abreu and Yasmani Grandal down to fourth and fifth, respectively. Robert is hitting .500 with one strikeout and two walks through 15 plate appearances this postseason.

Robert went 3-for-4 with two runs, an RBI and a walk in Friday's 9-4 loss to the Astros in Game 2 of the ALDS.
EDGE Analysis
Robert and the White Sox were unable to generate any extra-base hits in Game 2, but the 24-year-old had little trouble reaching base in the loss. Across his first two ALDS appearances, the outfielder has gone 5-for-9, although the White Sox will need to string together three consecutive wins if they hope to advance to the ALCS.

Robert went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer and a solo homer in Tuesday's 7-1 win over the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
Robert got off to a hot start after taking Riley O'Brien deep center field to get the White Sox on the board in the first. The 24-year-old followed that up with a two-run shot in the eighth to push their lead to 7-1. Robert now has four home runs over his last five games and has been scorching hot at the plate since his long-awaited return to the majors after an early-season hip injury. Since being activated off the injured list Aug. 9, Robert is slashing .367/.403/.645 with 11 homers, 33 RBI, 29 runs scored, a stolen base and 5:28 BB:K over 39 games. He has been absolutely raking at the plate and will look to carry it over into the postseason when it gets underway next week.
