Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. (hamstring) took batting practice and did some pregame running before the club's contest against the Los Angeles Dodgers on Wednesday. Robert hasn't played since last Tuesday because of a strained left hamstring. The injury forced him to the 10-day IL on June 26, continuing a brutal start to the season for the former All-Star. Robert has batted a personal-worst .185/.270/.313 with eight homers, 32 RBI, and 27 runs scored over 285 plate appearances. The lone bright spot has been his work on the bases, as Robert has already tallied 22 steals. He's just one swipe away from tying the career-high 23 he amassed last year.

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. (hamstring) has been placed on the 10-day injured list ahead of Sunday's game against the San Francisco Giants. Robert was pulled from Wednesday's game due to a hamstring issue. He has been unable to play since then, so the White Sox have decided to place him on the injured list. The White Sox didn't call-up anyone prior to Sunday's game, so a corresponding move will be made later. Michael A. Taylor will cover center field on Sunday and figures to see more action out there going forward. Robert is in the middle of a bad slump at the plate, so maybe some time off will help him get back on track.

The Chicago White Sox will reassess how outfielder Luis Robert Jr. (hamstring) feels on Monday and make the decision whether he'll return to the starting lineup for Tuesday's series opener against the Los Angeles Dodgers or land on the 10-day injured list, according to MLB.com's Scott Merkin. Robert is out of the lineup for the third straight game in Sunday's series finale against the visiting San Francisco Giants after he was pulled from Wednesday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks with tightness in his left hamstring. Michael Taylor will make another start in center field and will bat eighth on Sunday against Giants right-hander Justin Verlander, and he will see even more playing time going into the All-Star break if Robert goes on the IL. Robert has 22 steals in 249 at-bats this year but is hitting just .185 with eight homers. It's unclear how this injury might affect his trade value with the July 31 deadline approaching.

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. (hamstring) is not in Saturday's lineup against San Francisco Giants left-hander Robbie Ray. Robert hasn't played since leaving early in Wednesday's 7-3 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks with tightness in his hamstring. It's unknown whether he'll require a trip to the injured list. For now, the White Sox will go with Michael A. Taylor in center. He's batting seventh against Ray, who has been one of the NL's top starters this year.

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. (hamstring) will not start in Friday's series opener against the visiting San Francisco Giants. Michael Taylor will make the start in center field for the Pale Hose and will bat ninth against Giants right-hander Landen Roupp. Robert was pulled early from Wednesday's series finale against the Arizona Diamondbacks with tightness in his hamstring and will not return to action despite having an off day on Thursday. Given his history with lower-body injuries, fantasy managers should not be surprised if the 27-year-old outfielder is held out through the All-Star break in mid-July. The Cuban slugger does have 22 steals in 249 at-bats this year, but he's struggled immensely otherwise with a .185/.270/.313 slash line and a .584 OPS. He's one of the most likely trade candidates this summer, but his hamstring injury isn't helping matters for the White Sox.

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. (hamstring) was forced to make an early exit from Wednesday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Robert was taken out of the contest in the first inning due to left hamstring tightness. Luckily, Robert appears to have avoided serious injury and is currently considered day-to-day. The 27-year-old has been struggling with the bat, so maybe a few days off might be helpful. The expectation is that Michael A. Taylor and Austin Slater will see increased playing time while Robert is sidelined.

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. (hamstring) was pulled early from Wednesday's series finale against the visiting Arizona Diamondbacks with left-hamstring tightness. Austin Slater pinch hit for Robert in the bottom of the first inning, so Robert must have tweaked his hamstring on defense in the top of the first frame. The White Sox should have more information on Robert's hamstring injury after the game or on Thursday, but it's not a good sign for a player with a history of lower-body injuries. The 27-year-old Cuban does have 22 stolen bases on the year, but he's also hitting .185 (46-for-249) with eight home runs, 32 RBI and 27 runs scored. He is one of the biggest names on the trade market this summer, but his hamstring injury could affect other teams' interest in him if it's serious. Michael Taylor moved to center to replace Robert on Wednesday and would be the starter there if Robert goes on the IL.

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. (thumb) is back on the field for Tuesday's game against the visiting St. Louis Cardinals and left-hander Matthew Liberatore, starting in center field and batting fifth in the lineup. The White Sox scratched Robert from Sunday's series finale against the Texas Rangers due to soreness in his right thumb, but he's recovered after a scheduled off day on Monday. The 27-year-old Cuban has 21 stolen bases on the season, but that's about where it ends for fantasy managers. He enters Tuesday's tilt with a .194/.279/.311 slash line and has added only six home runs, 28 RBI and 25 runs scored for the last-place White Sox. Robert is as physically talented as they come, but he's struck out 80 times in his 254 plate appearances and is only in the 57th percentile in hard-hit rate. His xwOBA sits in just the 26th percentile in MLB.

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. (thumb) was scratched from Sunday's lineup due to thumb soreness. Instead, the White Sox will give Michael Taylor the starting nod in center field. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor Robert's status leading up to their next game on Tuesday evening against the St. Louis Cardinals. Over his last eight games, Robert has begun to find his footing at the plate, posting a .300/.364/.467 slash line with two doubles, one home run, and eight RBI. Prior to this recent surge, Robert posted a low .177/.266/.286 line with six doubles and five home runs through his first 55 games of the campaign. Robert has generated a solid 11.8% barrel rate, which suggests he should continue to see his power numbers increase throughout the summer. This afternoon, the White Sox are a viable target in DFS facing Texas right-hander Kumar Rocker.

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert had a big Friday night in the team's 7-2 win over the Kansas City Royals. His two-run single in the bottom of the eighth inning broke a 2-2 tie, and the White Sox never looked back. It was the high point of a 2-for-3, three-RBI performance for Robert, who was stuck in a 1-for-20 slump entering the game and hadn't played since Monday. The White Sox gave Robert off Tuesday and Wednesday for a mental break, and then he missed Thursday's game after a ball ricocheted and hit him in the head during batting practice. An All-Star just two years ago, Robert's numbers have dropped off the table since then. He's off to a horrid start this year with a .185/.275/.292 line and five HRs in 225 plate appearances. To his credit, Robert has raised his walk percentage to 11.1 - by far a career high - and has already stolen 21 bases.

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. (head) is back in center field and is hitting seventh for Friday's contest against the division-rival Kansas City Royals and right-hander Seth Lugo. Robert was given Tuesday and Wednesday off for a mental break. He also missed Thursday's contest after being hit in the head during batting practice on a ricochet. The 27-year-old is back now, though, and will be hoping to break out of his slump against a pitcher that he hasn't recorded a hit against in seven career at-bats. Outside of his league-best 21 stolen bases, the Cuban slugger and former All-Star has been a disappointment, hitting just .177 (34-for-192) with five home runs, 20 RBI and 24 runs scored in 55 games played. Robert has a strikeout rate just shy of 33% in his last 25 games. Perhaps fantasy managers will want to keep him benched until he shows signs of turning it around.

Updating a previous report, Chicago White Sox manager Will Venable said that outfielder Luis Robert Jr. (head) had a ball deflect off his head during batting practice, which is why he's resting as a precaution on Thursday against the division-rival Detroit Tigers. Robert will be back in the lineup for Friday's series opener versus the division-rival Kansas City Royals. Michael Taylor is in center field again and is hitting eighth on Thursday against Tigers right-hander Casey Mize. Robert received a mental break and didn't play on Tuesday or Wednesday, so he'll be out for a third straight game due to his minor head injury. The 27-year-old Cuban slugger still leads the league with 21 steals, but he's slashing .177/.266/.286 on the year with five homers and 20 RBI in 55 games. His .230 xBA gives hope to fantasy managers that better times are coming eventually.

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. is out of the team's lineup for their series finale against the visiting Detroit Tigers. Michael A. Taylor is again holding down center field and batting eighth. On Tuesday, White Sox manager Will Venable reported that the Cuban native would not start for a few days as he worked through some mechanical issues. Robert Jr. is amid a brutal 1-for-20 stretch over his last seven games -- with ten strikeouts -- and is slashing a dismal .177/.266/.286 through 55 appearances on the season. Despite the slump, he's second in the MLB with 21 steals and holds a .231 xBA. Though it's been bad, it appears much worse on the surface. It's worth mentioning that Venable noted Robert Jr. has been dealing with some knee soreness, but he doesn't think it has been limiting him in any way.

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. is out of the starting lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the Detroit Tigers. White Sox manager Will Venable said Robert won't start on Tuesday or Wednesday. The team is giving him a few days off to work through some problems. Robert is currently in the middle of a 1-for-20 stretch at the plate. He's slashing .177/.266/.286 on the season, so hopefully a little time off will help him get back on track. Michael A. Taylor will bat eighth and cover center field versus right-hander Beau Brieske on Tuesday.

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. has been dropped to seventh in the batting order for Sunday's series finale against the Baltimore Orioles and right-hander Charlie Morton at Camden Yards. Robert has struggled offensively for most of the season thus far other than his league-leading 21 stolen bases. The 27-year-old Cuban slugger recently returned from a two-game absence due to knee soreness and has gone hitless in eight at-bats with six strikeouts in two games since returning. Overall, his slash line leaves a lot to be desired at .182/.269/.294 while adding five home runs, 20 RBI and 24 runs scored in 53 games played. It's been bad news for Robert, who is in one of the worst lineups in baseball. Fantasy managers may want to keep him sidelined until he shows signs of breaking out of his funk. Robert has gone hitless in six career at-bats against Morton.

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. (knee) is starting in center field and is batting fifth against right-hander Zach Eflin and the hosting Baltimore Orioles for Friday's series opener at Camden Yards. Robert is returning to the lineup after sitting out the last two games due to soreness in his knee. The 27-year-old doesn't have much help in Chicago's lineup and is hitting under .200 in his 179 at-bats on the season, but he still has the ability to contribute across the board in fantasy leagues. He's also leading the big leagues with 21 stolen bases on 26 attempts over his 51 games played. Robert has been slightly better in May, slashing .215/.259/.304 with a home run in 23 games. He has only faced Eflin four times in his career and has one hit. When he's going good, Robert still has the potential to be one of the best fantasy producers, but playing in Chicago certainly lowers his ceiling.

Chicago White Sox manager Will Venable said that outfielder Luis Robert Jr. (knee) is dealing with knee soreness, which is why he's out of the starting lineup for the second straight day in Wednesday's series finale versus the New York Mets at Citi Field. The good news, though, is that Venable said Robert will likely be back for Friday's series opener against the Baltimore Orioles. The team has a scheduled day off for travel on Thursday. Michael Taylor will start in center field again on Wednesday and bat ninth against Mets right-hander Griffin Canning. Robert is hitting under .200 on the year so far with only five home runs, but he's also contributed 20 RBI, 24 runs scored and a league-leading 21 stolen bases in 51 games played. Hopefully, his knee injury won't slow him down on the base paths. Taylor is also hitting under .200 and will be a low-upside DFS crapshoot on Wednesday.

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. will head to the bench ahead of Tuesday's game against the New York Mets. This appears to be a routine rest day for Robert who has started in 13 straight games. It has been an ugly start to the season for Robert who is slashing .191/.277/.309 through basically the first two months of the season. The only bright spot is the fact that Robert has 21 stolen bases, which is currently the most in the American League. In his absence, Michael A. Taylor will cover center field and bat ninth against right-hander Tylor Megill on Tuesday.

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. did a little bit of everything during Saturday's game against the Texas Rangers. Robert has been off to an ugly start to the season, but maybe this good performance will help him get back on track. On Saturday, Robert went 3-for-5 with a pair of doubles, one RBI, two runs scored, and a stolen base in the win. The 27-year-old has struggled with the bat, but he's currently tied for first place in steals with Bobby Witt Jr., so at least Robert has that going for him. Honestly, the steal numbers are really the only thing keeping Robert relevant in fantasy leagues right now.

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. (knee) and third baseman Miguel Vargas (calf) are both back in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game on the road in Cincinnati against the Reds and left-hander Andrew Abbott. Robert is starting in center field and batting cleanup, while Vargas is at the hot corner and in the two-hole for the White Sox. Robert missed the team's last two games with soreness in his right knee but is back in there against the Reds after the team's off day on Monday. The 27-year-old Cuban slugger is hitting under .200 on the season but has been better in May and has 15 stolen bases in 129 at-bats. He has never faced Abbott, but he's hitting .273 (9-for-33) with two of his five homers against southpaws this year, making him more attractive in DFS on Tuesday. Vargas is in a good lineup spot but has done little to earn fantasy managers' trust this year with a .215 average and only two homers.
