White Sox Place Luis Robert Jr. on 10-Day Injured List with Hamstring Strain

The Chicago White Sox placed outfielder Luis Robert Jr. on the 10-day injured list due to a Grade 2 left hamstring strain, an injury that could potentially end his season. Robert, who has struggled offensively this year but showed improvement after the All-Star break, left a recent game against the Kansas City Royals due to soreness. Despite his injury history and inconsistent performance, the White Sox have expressed commitment to Robert and are considering picking up a $20 million club option on his contract for next season. While Robert remains valuable in fantasy baseball due to his power-speed combination, his availability is now uncertain, and other players like Will Robertson, Michael Taylor, and Brook Baldwin are expected to fill in during his absence. The team has not specified a timeline for his return, and given his frequent injuries, a longer stint on the injured list is likely. Robert's 2025 season will hinge on his recovery and ability to contribute if he returns.
