David Robertson Inks One-Year Deal With Rangers
11 months agoFree-agent reliever David Robertson has signed a one-year deal in the $11-12 million range with the reigning World Series champion Texas Rangers. The veteran signed a one-year deal with the Mets prior to the 2023 season and wound up tossing a tidy 2.05 ERA across 40 appearances with the club. However, Robertson was part of the Mets' trade-deadline binge as he was dealt to the Miami Marlins where he regressed to a 5.06 ERA across 22 outings spanning 21 1/3 innings of work. All told, the 38-year-old owns a 2.90 career ERA across 793 big-league outings, locking down 175 saves in the process. He should compete with Jose Leclerc for save opportunities at the back end of the Rangers' bullpen while Josh Sborz will also remain in the mix.
