Fantasy Impact
Robertson, who will turn 41 in April, ranks 35th all-time in career appearances with 881. He finishes his career with a 2.93 ERA across 894.1 innings while striking out 1,176 batters. He also appeared in 43 career postseason games and had a 3.40 ERA in the playoffs, including a perfect 0.00 ERA in six World Series contests. The righthander was part of the 2009 Yankees' team that won the Fall Classic and he was also an All-Star selection in 2011.
David Robertson allowed one hit but no walks in a perfect inning to earn the save in Thursday's 1-0 win against the Marlins.
Fantasy Impact
After a couple of rough outings in which he allowed three earned runs across two innings, Robertson bounced back and earned the save last night. Following yesterday's performance, Robertson now holds a 4.32 ERA and 1.50 WHIP with two saves and 10 holds across 19 games this season.
David Robertson has been called up to join the Phillies' bullpen.
Fantasy Impact
Robertson was originally signed by the Phillies on July 21. The veteran reliever has been building up at Triple-A Lehigh Valley ever since. Alan Rangel was optioned in a corresponding move.
The Phillies expect David Robertson to join them on Sunday.
Fantasy Impact
Robertson signed a one-year deal with the Phillies a few weeks ago. After getting in some appearances in the minors, he'll join the Phillies bullpen to end the weekend.
Phillies reliever David Robertson will not be activated when first eligible on Tuesday.
Fantasy Impact
Robertson allowed three earned runs in one inning on Friday and the club wants him to pitch some more in the minors before coming to the big leagues. The 40-year-old tossed a 3.00 ERA in 68 outings with the Rangers last season but did not find a major league offer to his liking in free agency before signing with the Phillies in July.
