New York Mets right-hander David Robertson threw a scoreless eighth inning in a 7-6 loss to the Milwaukee Brewers on Wednesday. Robertson did not allow a baserunner and needed just 12 pitches to get through the inning. The appearance is notable because the Mets chose not to deploy Robertson for a potential save situation in the ninth inning, instead turning to Adam Ottavino, who promptly blew the save by serving up a walk-off solo homer. Robertson has been the Mets' best reliever in the early stages of the season but there's a chance he is used more in high-leverage situations and not exclusively as a closer for New York.--Matt T - RotoBaller

According to Bruce Levine of 670 The Score, the Chicago Cubs and relief pitcher David Robertson have discussed a potential reunion. The 39-year-old spent time with the Cubs during the 2022 campaign. During this 40 1/3 inning stint, Robertson posted a 2.23 ERA and a 1.04 WHIP with 14 saves. Last summer, Robertson spent the entire season with the Texas Rangers and operated as the top setup man for Kirby Yates. Across 72 innings, the right-hander held a 3.00 ERA and a 1.11 WHIP. He tallied an impressive 35 holds with a strong 33.6% K rate. However, he struggled with his command as he held a high 9.4% walk rate. Levine noted that the Cubs were also interested in Paul Sewald before he signed with Cleveland. Robertson would likely have a high-leverage role in the Chicago bullpen and could even compete for save opportunities with Porter Hodge.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

According to Jake Oliver of Sports Illustrated, right-handed pitcher David Robertson could be a potential target for the Arizona Diamondbacks. The Diamondbacks have expressed interest in adding a reliable high-leverage option and given Robertson's experience, he could fit that bill. Last summer across 72 innings with the Texas Rangers, the 39-year-old held a strong 3.00 ERA and a 1.11 WHIP. He struck 99 batters with a 9.4% walk rate. Robertson was deployed as the set-up man behind Kirby Yates. Under the hood, he generated a strong 3.19 xERA and 5.5% barrel rate which were both above the average marks of qualified pitchers. If the Diamondbacks do not pursue Robertson, they could look internally for their ninth-inning arm such as Justin Martinez or A.J. Puk.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

Relief pitcher David Robertson did not exercise his mutual team option with the Texas Rangers for the 2025 season and will instead test free agency, according to Kennedi Landry of MLB.com. The 39-year-old enjoyed another excellent campaign, posting a 3.00 ERA, 1.11 WHIP, with a 27:99 BB:K ratio in 72 innings of work. He tallied two saves and 35 holds, serving as the primary eighth-inning option in Texas. Robertson was able to generate ground balls at an above-average 47.0% mark and induce soft contact with a strong 5.5% barrel rate. Robertson will likely be a top target for fantasy managers in holds leagues in 2025 and could be in the mix for save opportunities, depending on his situation.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

Texas Rangers relief pitcher David Robertson pitched two innings on Thursday to pick up his second save of the season against the Chicago White Sox. Robertson retired all six batters he faced and picked up two strikeouts in the process. The veteran got the opportunity with closer Kirby Yates unavailable, due to appearing in the last three games. Despite only having two saves on the season, Robertson have been very effective for managers in leagues that count holds, as he has 21 on the season to go along with a solid 3.02 ERA and 13.30 K/9. If anything were to happen to Yates, Robertson would be the clear frontrunner to take over the ninth inning. For now, his best value is for managers seeking holds.--Daniel Burdeen - RotoBaller
