March 26, 201511 yr Dan Hayes @CSNHayes 26m26 minutes ago David Robertson: "It’s not even dead arm. It’s just you tweak something. You have a little soreness. You just try to get it right." David Robertson identified the area as forearm. But, quickly offered, "I'm not going for MRIs or anything like that." #WhiteSox
March 26, 201511 yr Author Doug Padilla @ESPNChiSox 34m34 minutes ago Ventura says both Robertson and Petricka going through soreness/dead arm. Robertson did throw a pen today.
March 26, 201511 yr Author Scott Merkin @scottmerkin 44m44 minutes ago Robertson has soreness right by the forearm but has no worries. Threw a bullpen today and felt good.
March 27, 201511 yr Is anyone else a bit weary of Robertson? Good performances in spring doesn't tell me much, but bad performances along with arm issues are a big red flag in my opinion. I don't think I have to remind you guys of the last time we acquired/signed a big name closer. His name was Billy Koch. That didn't turn out so well. Edited March 27, 201511 yr by chw42

He has no history of arm problems, at least that i know which comforts me. All pictures go through it some way shape or form.
March 27, 201511 yr https://twitter.com/CSNHayes/status/581488601642356736 Jacob Petricka said soreness is same as David Robertson, was shut down but will resume throwing Saturday. Had an MRI but found nothing.

So good performances tell you nothing, but bad are a big red flag? He's a veteran getting ready for the season. Peaking in the middle of March is not a good thing.
