Luis Robert Jr. Looks For A Healthy Rebound In 2025
1 day agoChicago White Sox center fielder Luis Robert Jr. will be looking to rebound from a disappointing season in 2024. Coming off a 2023 season that saw him hit .264 with 38 home runs and 20 stolen bases, Robert Jr. only hit .224 with 14 home runs, 35 RBI, 23 stolen bases, and 47 runs scored. The veteran could only play in 100 games last year due to many injuries; he missed two months with a hip flexor strain and then finished the season with a balky hamstring. Injuries have robbed him of significant time in his career, as he has only once played 140 games in a season, his breakout 2023 season. His current ADP of 84 pushes him back to the sixth round, a price drop from last season. The key caveat here seems to be health; Robert Jr. could have a 30/30 season in him if he is healthy, and is only 27 years old. Trade rumors are swirling about him as the White Sox engage in yet another rebuild. Look for Robert Jr. to start the season with the White Sox, and if he can demonstrate he is healthy again, he could be traded to the highest bidder before the trade deadline. Robert represents a potential value pick if he can stay healthy and productive.
