Chuckie

Robinson

Always looking for catcher depth, the Braves brought in Robinson in to serve as organizational depth. He went 2-for-23 in a short-term back-up role with the Dodgers between being designated for assignment on two separate occasions.

Robinson had passed through waivers unclaimed last weekend after being designated for assignment, but it appears that rather than accepting the outright assignment to Triple-A Oklahoma City, the two sides will part ways. He’s now free to peddle his wares on the open market.

The 31-year-old backstop had been designated for assignment on Tuesday. Once again, Robinson passed through waivers unclaimed and will continue to function as extra catching depth for the Dodgers at the Triple-A level.

Robinson was up for one game while the Dodgers waited for trade deadline acquisitions Ben Rortvedt and Hunter Feduccia to join the club at Wrigley Field.

Robinson returns to Los Angeles with starting catcher Dalton Rushing landing on the injured list with elbow inflammation. The 31-year-old journeyman backstop went 2-for-23 during an eight-game stint with the Dodgers earlier this season.

Robinson will stick around as emergency organizational depth after being jettisoned from Los Angeles’ 40-man roster earlier this week. The 31-year-old backstop went 2-for-23 during an eight-game stint with the Dodgers. Eliezer Alfonzo will back up Dalton Rushing until Will Smith (neck) returns from the injured list.

Robinson loses his spot on Los Angeles’ 40-man roster amid a flurry of moves. The 31-year-old backstop went 2-for-23 during an eight-game stint with the Dodgers. It’ll be Eliezer Alfonzo backing up Dalton Rushing until Will Smith (neck) returns from the injured list.

Robinson went 2-for-23 in his brief time with the Dodgers, and Los Angeles will give Eliezer Alonso a chance to backup Dalton Rushing instead. Robinson could get another shot if Alonso struggled, there’s just no upside here whether he’s in Los Angeles or OKC.

Alfonzo finally receives the call to the big leagues after spending nearly a decade in the minors. The 26-year-old Venezuelan native was hitting .313/.392/.422 with one homer at Triple-A Oklahoma City this season. He’ll give the Dodgers some additional catching depth behind Dalton Rushing with the club deciding to move on from Chuckie Robinson, who went 2-for-23 in eight games since being called up.

Rushing returns to Los Angeles lineup after passing concussion protocol. There was some initial concern when he took a foul tip off his mask during Monday’s series opener, but he checked out fine after undergoing precautionary testing. It’s a significant relief for the Dodgers since they’re without primary backstop Will Smith (neck) for at least another week or two. Rushing’s return sends Chuckie Robinson back to the bench after filling in admirably the last two days.
