Robertson

Robertson signed a minor league contract with the Braves back in April and never wound up making it back to the big leagues. The 29-year-old former first-round pick batted .220/.336/.316 with three homers and 20 RBI across 211 plate appearances over 54 games this season for Triple-A Gwinnett.

The 28-year-old was released by the Rays at the end of spring training. He makes for a nice depth signing for the Braves at the Triple-A level, though it would take quite a few injuries for him to get a shot in Atlanta.

The 28-year-old really struggled during Grapefruit League play, hitting just .172/.250/.207 with no homers, five RBI and 12 strikeouts in 29 at-bats. He’ll presumably look to latch on elsewhere on a minor league pact.

Robertson spent all of last season at the Triple-A level with the Brewers and Phillies. He got into 50 contests for Milwaukee during the 2021 campaign. The 28-year-old former first-round selection offers plenty of defensive versatility, but his odds of making Tampa Bay’s season-opening roster are extremely low.

Robertson, who played in the minors with the Twins and Phillies last season, reached the big leagues with the Rays in 2017 and had his one successful season with the team the next year, hitting .262/.382/.415 in 340 PA. He’s since had difficulty staying healthy and struggled when he has taken the field, so he won’t be much of a threat to make the Rays this spring. Still, if anyone can help him turn it around...

Robertson inked a minor league contract with the Twins back in February and has hit just .183/.279/.267 with one homer across 68 plate appearances this season at Triple-A St. Paul. The 28-year-old former first-round selection has appeared in 299 games in the majors since 2017 between the Rays, Giants and Brewers. He’ll augment the Phillies’ position player depth moving forward.

Robertson hit just .133 (2-for-15) in 10 Grapefruit League games this spring and will open the regular season at Triple-A St. Paul as organizational position player depth. The 28-year-old former first-round pick offers plenty of defensive versatility and should be up with the Twins at some point this season.

The 27-year-old appeared in 50 games with the Brewers during the 2021 season, slashing a cringe-inducing .164/.303/.274 with two homers, four RBI and a 28/12 K/BB ratio over 90 plate appearances. He was then designated for assignment and finished out the year at Triple-A Nashville where he was somehow worse -- slashing just .115/.216/.154 in 88 plate appearances. He’ll add minor league infield depth for the Twins.

Robertson was designated for assignment by Milwaukee last week and passed through waivers unclaimed. The 27-year-old utilityman had slashed just .164/.303/.274 over 50 games (90 plate appearances) this season for the Brew Crew.

It makes room for Rowdy Tellez on the roster. Robertson really struggled in his 90 plate appearances over 50 games with a .164 average and .577 OPS. It’s possible that the former top prospect is claimed because of his versatility, but there’s as good of chance -- if not better -- that he ends up back in Triple-A.
