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.

Robert (knee) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
Though Robert will miss a second straight start, the outfielder's sore right knee is considered a minor concern. Robert will be available off the bench Sunday, and the expectation is that he'll return to the lineup Tuesday in Cincinnati following Monday's team off day.

Michael Taylor is taking over in center field while hitting ninth for Saturday's contest.
