Luis Robert Still Enticing Trade Piece, But Has Star's Poor Play Killed His Value?
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. The Chicago White Sox are approaching a fork in the road involving their talented centerfielder, Luis Robert Jr. The Sox are running out of time for Robert to save his season -- and the White Sox's return package. Robert's play has been frustrating this season, and it may cost the White Sox at the trade deadline. CINCINNATI, OHIO - MAY 15: Luis Robert Jr. #88 of the Chicago White Sox walks back to the dugout after striking out in the first inning against the Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ball Park... CINCINNATI, OHIO - MAY 15: Luis Robert Jr. #88 of the Chicago White Sox walks back to the dugout after striking out in the first inning against the Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ball Park on May 15, 2025 in Cincinnati, Ohio. More Photo byRobert has been the headliner of this season's trade deadline for months now, but with his poor play, he may be playing his way out of being the top commodity for contenders. Entering Tuesday, Robert had a batting average of .191 and has hit five home runs this season. Robert has taken a sharp decline in the past two seasons since his lone All-Star appearance. Robert's contract runs through 2027 with club options, which makes his contract team-friendly. Robert's struggles have been center stage and as one of the last remaining trade chips on the White Sox roster. The future of the franchise relies on the return Robert can bring. While Robert has been struggling the past two seasons, he is healthy, which has been a point of contention on how good the once-promising prospect could be. Staying on the field is going to give Robert the chance to prove himself capable of returning to the level he played at in 2023. With his future hanging in the balance, Robert will have to take a step up to find himself on a contender down the stretch.

Burke tosses 3-hit ball over 6 innings as White Sox beat Rangers 4-1
Sean Burke tossed three-hit ball over six innings and the Chicago White Sox beat the Texas Rangers 4-1 on Friday night. Burke (3-5) outpitched Tyler Mahle (5-2) and the White Sox opened the weekend series on a winning note after losing six of seven. The Rangers dropped their season-high fifth in a row. Luis Robert Jr. capped a three-run third with an RBI single. He also took third when right fielder Adolis García dropped his fly ball leading off the sixth and scored on Joshua Palacios' single against Caleb Boushley, making it 4-1. In a game between teams that came in with the two lowest batting averages and scoring totals in the American League, that was more than enough. Burke allowed one run. The 25-year-old right-hander struck out six and walked three. Cam Booser and Jordan Leasure each worked an inning. Steven Wilson pitched the ninth for his first save and the White Sox stopped an 11-game losing streak against Texas. Mahle lasted five innings, allowing a season-high three runs and five hits. Jake Burger cut it to 3-1 with a two-out double in the sixth, but the Rangers continued to struggle at the plate after getting outscored a combined 10-5 by the New York Yankees the previous three games. After holding opponents to two runs or less in each of his first 10 starts, Mahle fell behind 3-0 in the third. He gave up singles to Lenyn Sosa and Josh Rojas leading off before issuing one-out walks to Mike Tauchman and Miguel Vargas, forcing in the first run. Andrew Benintendi hit a sacrifice fly and Robert added an RBI bloop single. The White Sox beat the Rangers for the first time since a 7-6 victory on June 20, 2023, in Chicago. Rookie RHP Jack Leiter (3-2, 4.25 ERA) starts for Texas and RHP Jonathan Cannon (2-5, 3.76) gets the ball for Chicago.
