Robert was removed from Thursday's spring game after being tagged on the helmet on a stolen base attempt, AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Cassavell reports that Robert appeared to be fine in the dugout, so it doesn't seem like this will be anything too serious. The exact nature of the injury is also unknown at this time, but look for him to return to action in the next few days.

Robert has been invited to the White Sox's major-league camp this spring, James Fegan of The Athletic Chicago reports.
EDGE Analysis
As expected, the White Sox will give Robert a look during spring despite the team having already announced that he'll report to either Low-A Kannapolis or High-A Winston-Salem to open the 2018 season. The 20-year-old hit an impressive .310/.491/.536 with 12 extra-base hits in 28 games in the Dominican Summer League after joining the White Sox organization midseason. He's still a couple of years away from contributing at the major-league level.

Robert is expected to receive an invitation to big-league training camp in 2018 before being placed at an undermined single-A affiliate, Colleen Kane of the Chicago Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 19-year-old Robert joined the White Sox organization mid-season and slashed .310/.491/.536 with 12 extra-base hits in 28 games for the team's entry in the Dominican Summer League. He's at least two years away from making an impact at the major-league level but is considered part of the organization's next competitive window.

Robert (ankle) went 0-for-4 as the designated hitter in Wednesday's Dominican Summer League game, Scot Gregor of the Chicago Daily Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
The White Sox are easing Robert back into action, deploying him as the DH in his first game back since spraining his ankle Aug. 6. The 20-year-old owns a .284/.500/.463 line with 11 steals and an impressive 21:22 K:BB through 24 games in the DSL this season.

Robert is expected to miss 7-to-10 days with a sprained right ankle, Colleen Kane of the Chicago Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Robert, who recently returned from a left knee injury that sidelined him for the better part of July, is set to miss some more time after injuring himself while running the bases Monday. The 20-year-old was slashing .400/.571/.733 with a homer and two stolen bases in August (five games) before going down. The good news is that X-rays came back negative, so he isn't expected to miss too much time.

Robert, 19, is hitting .255/.479/.392 with one home run and eight steals on 11 attempts with an impressive 14:17 K:BB in 51 at-bats in the Dominican Summer League.
EDGE Analysis
The high-profile Cuban outfielder is beginning his career at the lowest level of the White Sox's farm system, which is somewhat surprising, as some scouting reports suggested he could handle Low-A or even High-A when he received a $26 million signing bonus in late May. The lack of success among recent high-profile Cuban signees coupled with the cautious assignment to the DSL make Robert a high-risk/high-reward prospect for dynasty leagues.

Robert's deal with the White Sox became official on Saturday, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports. He will receive a $26 million signing bonus.
EDGE Analysis
The pact with the White Sox was first reported last weekend, but the signing became official with a press conference Saturday. The 19-year-old outfielder has the potential to be a 65-grade runner with above average power, but it is unclear what kind of hit tool he will bring to the table, as reports on that aspect of his game are mixed. His tools, name value and price tag mean that he will be a prized commodity in dynasty leagues right away. It is unclear where he will be assigned, but he is likely a couple years away from the big leagues.

Robert agreed to a deal with the White Sox on Saturday, Jon Heyman of MLB Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Chicago adds yet another intriguing asset to its farm system with the acquisition of one of the best Cuban prospects available in this year's international signing period. Robert, 19, has a strong combination of speed and raw power that should allow him to become a center fielder at the major league level down the road. He slashed .401/.526/.687 with 12 home runs and 11 steals over 182 at-bats with Ciego de Avila in Serie Nacional last season. Despite his intriguing skill set, Robert is likely a couple of years away from making an impact at the major league level.
