Robert is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Tigers.
EDGE Analysis
White Sox manager Will Venable said that Robert won't start Wednesday's game, either, as he gets a mental break while battling through a season-long slump, per Kyle Williams of the Chicago Sun-Times. The 27-year-old is 1-for-20 over his last seven contests to drag his season batting line down to .177/.266/.286. Michael Taylor is in center field and batting eighth Tuesday.

Robert is starting in center field and batting seventh Sunday against the Orioles.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran outfielder has gone 0-for-8 with six strikeouts in the past two games after sitting out a couple days due to knee soreness, and manager Will Venable has elected to move Robert down the lineup given his season-long struggles at the plate. The 27-year-old leads the league with 21 stolen bases but has otherwise struggled offensively with a .182/.269/.294 slash line, five homers, 20 RBI and 24 runs in 53 games.

Robert (knee) is starting in center field and batting fifth Friday against the Orioles.
EDGE Analysis
The 27-year-old sat out the previous two games due to knee soreness but is back in the lineup after Thursday's team off day. Robert has a .215/.259/.304 slash line with one homer through 23 games in May, though he's supplied value on the basepaths with nine steals.

Robert is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Mets due to knee soreness, Kyle Williams of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Robert is out of the lineup for a second consecutive game Wednesday, and it's now known his absence is due to knee soreness. Michael Taylor will play center field Wednesday. Robert can be considered day-to-day, though, per Williams, White Sox manager Will Venable said Robert will likely be back for Friday's series opener against Baltimore.

Robert is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Mets.
EDGE Analysis
Robert will yield to Michael Taylor for a second consecutive game. The only other time Robert has been idle in back-to-back games came in early May when the 27-year-old was dealing with knee soreness. Considering there hasn't been any injury news, Robert may simply be losing playing time. He leads the league in stolen bases with 21, but he has a subpar .583 OPS and a 29.6 percent strikeout rate.

Robert is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mets.
EDGE Analysis
Robert leads the league with 21 stolen bases -- which is just two short of the career-high 23 steals he posted last season -- but has otherwise been a disappointment offensively in 2025 with a .191/.277/.309 slash line through 50 games. The 27-year-old started the previous 13 contests but will receive a breather Tuesday against New York righty Tylor Megill. Michael Taylor will instead start in center field for the White Sox.

Robert went 3-for-5 with two doubles, one RBI, two runs scored and a stolen base in Saturday's victory over Texas.
EDGE Analysis
Robert recorded his first three-hit game of the season in a strong team win. It's been a tough season for the 27-year-old so far, and despite this standout performance, things don't appear to be turning around just yet. In the 15 games leading up to Saturday, Robert hit just .148 (8-for-54) with only one extra-base hit. The White Sox are certainly hoping this can be a turning point for their talented center fielder, but that remains to be seen.

Robert went 2-for-4 with a double and a run scored Sunday against the Cubs.
EDGE Analysis
Robert ended a three-game hitless streak, but he has still reached base in only two of his last seven games. He's hitting just .184 this season and has shown little improvement as the campaign has progressed. On the other hand, Robert has returned some fantasy value with five home runs and 17 steals across 43 contests.

Robert went 2-for-3 with an RBI single, a run scored and a stolen base during Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
Robert swiped his 10th bag in his last 15 appearances, stealing second base in the second inning after reaching on a single. The 27-year-old is slashing just .190/.296/.321 through 137 at-bats, but he's provided plenty of value in the steal department, leading MLB in the category.
