Luis Robert Jr. News
Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. had a big day at the plate in Tuesday's 14-1 Cactus League win over the Reds. The 26-year-old went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, a two-run HR, and a walk. He hasn't been particularly effective at the plate overall this spring, batting .231 with no stolen bases in 26 at-bats. However, he appears healthy, which has been the only impediment to him being a perpetual high-end fantasy option throughout his career.
Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. has played in both Cactus League games to start spring, going a combined 0-for-4 with a strikeout. The overall positive takeaway is that the 26-year-old is healthy and on the field, as injuries have been an issue throughout his career. Robert was able to stay on the field for most of 2023, slashing .264/.315/.542 with 38 home runs, 90 runs scored, 80 RBI, and 20 stolen bases in 595 plate appearances over 145 games. Despite hitting in a weak White Sox lineup, Robert has the potential to be a top fantasy contributor if he can stay healthy. It will be an encouraging sign for fantasy managers if he can put in a full spring.
Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. (knee) will miss the rest of the 2023 regular season due to a mild MCL sprain in his left knee that will put him on the injured list. The White Sox are bringing up Tyler Naquin from Triple-A Charlotte in a corresponding move. Fantasy managers that invested in Robert at a relatively low cost have to be thrilled at how his season turned out in 2023. The 26-year-old Cuban managed to play in over 100 games for the first time in his career and slashed .264/.315/.542 with an .857 OPS and career-highs in home runs (38), doubles (36), RBI (80), stolen bases (20) and runs scored (90) in 145 total games and 595 plate appearances.

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. played a career-high 145 games in 2023. The 26-year-old slashed .264/.315/.542 with 38 homers, 80 RBI, 90 runs, and 20 stolen bases across 590 plate appearances. He supported his slash line with a .508 xSLG, .344 wOBA, and a 15.2 percent barrel rate. There are some durability concerns with Robert. Before 2023, he played in just 166 games over two seasons, missing time due to a sprained MCL and other injuries. When healthy, he is a top-10 fantasy outfielder, and ATC projections are on board with that assessment. ATC projects Robert with a .271/.320/.495 slash line with 30 home runs and stolen 19 bases over 599 plate appearances. Chicago's offense is near the bottom of the league and isn't projected to improve in 2024, affecting his runs and RBI totals. However, Robert is a solid pick in the early rounds (NFBC ADP of 30) as long as he can stay off the injured list.
