Roberts missed much of spring training in 2010 with a herniated disc in his lower back.
He recovered in time for Opening Day, but started the season 2–14 before suffering an abdominal strain stealing second base and being forced onto the 15-day disabled list, effective as of April 10.
On July 12, Roberts began to play in rehab games without having a setback, as it is the first time he has been on the field since April 10.
On July 23, Roberts returned to the Orioles' lead off spot for the first time since April 9.

Roberts suffered a concussion on September 27, 2010, after he hit himself in the head with his baseball bat out of frustration.
He suffered his second concussion on May 16, 2011, when he slid into first base headfirst and hit the back of his head.
He did not return for the remainder of the season.

Through the beginning of the season, Roberts continued his stay on the disabled list, but traveled with the team and remained an active member of the dugout.
On May 22, Buck Showalter announced Roberts would be starting his rehab stint with the Double A Bowie Baysox and would use all 20 rehab games.
His final five rehab games were played with the Triple A Norfolk Tides.
Roberts returned to the Orioles on June 12, 2012, starting at second base.
However, a groin strain returned him to the disabled list on July 3, and after a brief attempt at another rehab assignment, he elected to have season-ending hip surgery on July 29 in hopes to return fresh to spring training in 2013.

In spring training in 2013, Roberts reported that he was free of the post-concussion syndrome resulting from his 2011 concussion.
On April 4, during the Orioles' third game of the season, Roberts ruptured a tendon behind his right knee while stealing second base in the ninth inning of a 6-3 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays.
He was placed on the 15-day DL, with an expected downtime of three to four weeks.
