Robert and the Sox had agreed to a six-year, $50 million deal with two options before his first major-league game, the largest deal in major-league history for a player without any service time. On July 24, 2020, Robert makes his long-awaited debut in the opener of the 2020 season, which starts in July after the MLB shutdown caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Unlike the debuts of Moncada, Giolito, Kopech, Eloy Jiménez and Dylan Cease, no fans are allowed inside the ballpark to witness Robert’s first game.
