White Sox Pick Up 2026 Option on Luis Robert Jr.
As expected, the Chicago White Sox picked up the $20 million option for the 2026 season on outfielder Luis Robert Jr. on Tuesday, according to Jesse Rogers of ESPN. The White Sox also have another $20 million club option on Robert for the 2027 campaign. The 28-year-old Cuban outfielder has been a name thrown around in trade rumors for over a year, but the Pale Hose have held onto him even though he continues to miss valuable time due to injuries. He played in 110 games in 2025 and hit just .223/.297/.364 with a .661 OPS, 14 home runs, 53 RBI, and 52 runs scored, but he also stole a career-high 33 bases in 431 plate appearances. Robert also showed his upside in the second half by hitting just under .300. Fantasy managers are wondering if Robert can ever replicate his 38-homer, 80-RBI, 20-steal season from 2023. Robert has the skills to do so, but his health is a big question mark.
