Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. has been officially activated off the injured list after recovering from a hip injury and will be in the lineup tonight at Wrigley Field. Robert had been playing in AAA and was expected to return this week. He had been playing in center field and DHing on Sunday before being reevaluated. His return comes as the White Sox make several roster moves, including placing Tommy Pham on the IL due to a left ankle sprain sustained during a slide into home against the Brewers.

Reading between lines, Luis Robert Jr. is tracking toward return for Cubs at Wrigley on Tuesday. Yesterday was planned day off.
Robert playing today and Saturday in center, DHing Sunday and then will be reevaluated. Sounds as if he could be back Tues in Wrigley.
Luis Robert did not play in AAA today, leads me to believe he will be back with the Sox tomorrow 👀
