CHICAGO (AP) — The Chicago White Sox placed
Luis Robert Jr. on the 10-day injured list on Wednesday, a tough
blow for the center fielder after he started to deliver at the
plate.
Robert has a left hamstring strain. He left Tuesday night's 5-4
loss to Kansas City because of hamstring soreness.
The White Sox also recalled outfielder Will Robertson from
Triple-A Charlotte before their series finale against the
Royals.
The 28-year-old Robert got off to a tough start this year,
batting .190 with nine homers, 35 RBIs and 93 strikeouts in his
first 79 games. He was believed to be on the market ahead of the
trade deadline, but the White Sox opted to keep the slumping
slugger.
He has been much better since the All-Star break, hitting .298
(34 for 114) with five homers and 18 RBIs in his last 31 games.
Robert, a 2023 All-Star, has 102 homers and 102 steals in 577
career games, joining Minnie Miñoso, Ray Durham and Alexei
Ramírez as the only players to record at least 100 homers and
100 steals with the franchise.
