White Sox Place Outfielder Luis Robert Jr. on Injured List and Reinstate Pitcher Jonathan Cannon
- Luis Robert Jr. was moved to the injured list with a left hamstring strain, effective from June 26, while the White Sox activated right-handed pitcher Jonathan Cannon.
- Robert Jr. suffered the injury running for a fly ball during the June 25 game against the Arizona Diamondbacks, and the team decided on the injured list stint after no sufficient improvement.
- In 2025, Robert Jr. has struggled at the plate, managing a batting average well below.200 and totaling eight home runs, which, despite his impressive defensive skills and league-leading stolen base count, has led to trade discussions surrounding him.
- General manager Chris Getz confirmed teams expressed trade interest in Robert Jr., though his declining performance has lowered his market value and the White Sox may include money in a deal.
- The White Sox are set to adjust their roster ahead of Tuesday’s game against the Los Angeles Dodgers, likely promoting an outfielder like Brooks Baldwin, who has been performing exceptionally in Triple-A.
