US EditionLuis Robert Jr. Is Off to a Rough Start with the Chicago White Sox
- Luis Robert Jr., the 27-year-old center fielder for the Chicago White Sox, is struggling early in the 2025 campaign, hitting just.186 with five home runs across 44 games.
- Robert attributes his slow start to overthinking and timing issues at the plate, despite feeling good during his preparation and routine for games this season.
- Last season, Robert batted.264 with 38 home runs and 80 RBIs over 145 games but missed nearly two months due to a right hip flexor strain and ended on a 34-game homerless streak.
- As of May 2025, Robert leads the majors with 17 steals, has 52 strikeouts, and remains a strong defensive player and 2020 Gold Glove winner, while the rebuilding White Sox hold a 14-34 record.
- Robert remains the White Sox’s top trade asset, but the team has not accepted any offers, and his 2026 contract includes a $20 million club option with a $2 million buyout for 2027.
