Robert went 2-for-5 with a double and an RBI in Monday's 11-1 win over the Twins.

EDGE Analysis

Robert was activated off the 60-day injured list Monday and made an immediate impact for the White Sox with an RBI-double in the fifth inning. He batted seventh in the order, and manager Tony La Russa could continue that practice as the outfielder ramps up from three months off. Prior to the injury, Robert had his most plate appearances in the two hole, where newcomer Cesar Hernandez has been living since he was acquired from Cleveland in late July.

Robert (hip) was activated off the 60-day injured list as expected Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Robert injured his right hip flexor back in early May and will wind up having missed over three months. He didn't dominate over his 12-game rehab assignment, hitting a modest .268/.388/.390, but he's nonetheless been deemed ready to go and should be able to provide both the White Sox and fantasy teams with plenty of power and speed down the stretch. In his 81 career MLB games to date, he's hit .259 with 12 homers and 13 steals. Gavin Sheets was optioned in a corresponding move.

Manager Tony La Russa said Robert (hip) will join the White Sox on Monday in Minnesota and will be activated from the 60-day injured list ahead of the series opener, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Robert has been on a rehab assignment for nearly three weeks while working his way back from a right hip flexor, and the White Sox believe he's now ready for an everyday role at the big-league level. According to Scott Merkin of MLB.com, Robert will be included in the starting nine Monday, presumably manning center field. With the 24-year-old back in action, the White Sox may have fewer opportunities available in the outfield for the likes of Brian Goodwin, Gavin Sheets, Leury Garcia and Adam Engel. All of Robert, Eloy Jimenez and Andrew Vaughn appear locked in for full-time roles between the three outfield spots and the designated-hitter spot, leaving just one opening in the lineup up for grabs more often than not.

Robert (hip) won't return during the White Sox's weekend series against the Cubs, Vinnie Duber of NBC Sports Chicago reports.

EDGE Analysis

Robert has been on a rehab assignment for just over three weeks, and he's hit .265 with two doubles, three runs, three RBI and a stolen base across 10 games. While manager Tony La Russa said Thursday that the outfielder's return is imminent, he ruled him out for the team's weekend series and said that the 24-year-old will face an "important test" in his rehab assignment this weekend. La Russa is optimistic that Robert will be in consideration to return from the 60-day IL against Minnesota on Monday.

Manager Tony La Russa said Sunday that he doesn't expect Robert (hip) to return from the White Sox's upcoming three-game series with the Royals, which runs from Tuesday through Thursday, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

La Russa wasn't willing to completely rule Robert out from making an appearance during the series with Kansas City, but the White Sox seemingly want the 23-year-old outfield to pick up a few more at-bats at Triple-A Charlotte before reinstating him from the 60-day injured list. Through the first eight games of his rehab assignment that has included stops at Charlotte and High-A Winston-Salem, Robert has gone 8-for-25 with two doubles, one stolen base and a 4:7 BB:K.

Robert (hip) went 2-for-3 with a walk and a run scored for Triple-A Charlotte on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Robert is a combined 8-for-25 over eight games in his rehab assignment at High-A Winston-Salem and now Charlotte. White Sox manager Tony La Russa said he's received nothing but glowing reports from Knights manager Wes Helms but added that Robert is still "a few at-bats short" of returning. The White Sox have 20 days to keep him on rehab, which began July 21, so they have until next weekend to get him on board in Chicago.

Robert (hip) went 0-for-2 with a walk and was hit by a pitch for Triple-A Charlotte on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Robert had his rehab assignment moved to Triple-A Charlotte, and this was his first game with the Knights. He started in center field, batted leadoff and played nine innings in the field before leaving for a pinch hitter in the bottom of the ninth inning. He was hit by a pitch in the seventh inning and stayed in the game, so there does not appear to be any concern regarding that. The White Sox have not put a timetable on Robert's return, but he's allowed a maximum of 20 days on a rehab stint. If he uses the full allotment of time, the latest he would return is Aug. 12.

Robert (hip) will shift his rehab assignment from High-A Winston-Salem to Triple-A Charlotte on Tuesday, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

The move up to Triple-A marks the final step in Robert's rehab program for his Grade 3 right hip flexor strain, which has kept him on the injured list since early May. Robert drew favorable reviews during his recent four-game rehab assignment at Winston-Salem, going 3-for-12 with a double and a 1:3 BB:K. The White Sox will presumably want to see Robert play at least one or two full games in the outfield before reinstating him from the 60-day IL -- a move that could happen as soon as this weekend's home series versus Cleveland. Given the multi-category upside he's displayed when healthy over his two seasons in the majors, Robert needs to be stashed in all but the shallowest of fantasy leagues.

Robert (hip) is a combined 2-for-8 with a walk and an RBI over three games of his rehab assignment at High-A Winston-Salem.

EDGE Analysis

Robert has played all three games in center field for the Dash but has yet to play a full game. Saturday's game was his most extensive work, as he played seven innings after logging five innings in each of the previous two contests. The White Sox have not set a timeline for Robert's return, though a sign of his imminent return will be when he starts playing nine innings on back-to-back days.

Robert (hip) will begin a rehab assignment Wednesday at High-A Winston-Salem, Vinnie Duber of NBC Sports Chicago reports.

EDGE Analysis

Robert appears to be ahead of schedule in his rehab, though it remains to be seen how long he'll need to get ready in the minors after failing to see big-league action since May 2 due to the hip issue.
