Luis Robert Jr. expressed uncertainty about how long he will remain with the White Sox while emphasizing finishing the season strong and enjoying the moment. A hamstring strain threatens to end his season and complicates his recovery path amid a career marked by health issues. General manager Chris Getz affirmed the team's commitment to Robert and the $20 million contract option for 2026, citing his talent and impact. The White Sox declined to trade Robert at the deadline, a bet that he would regain his 2023 form; the injury now increases the risk of that strategy.
"It's very important to me to finish this season strong, being able to carry that out for next season," the center fielder said through an interpreter Sunday, "here or wherever god puts me. "I'm just enjoying the moment. I don't know for how long I'm going to be here. What matters is today. Today, I'm enjoying the moment and enjoying being with these guys."
"He can be such a boost to this lineup and this team, and that's why we are talking about it today. "He's really risen, in terms of the impact on this team and the league. ... For what he's capable of doing - the talent, the impact he can have on this club - we like having Luis Robert here."
