David Robertson's Market Heating Up
Dec. 10, 2018
.Interest in free-agent relief pitcher David Robertson is picking up. At least half a dozen teams are showing interest in him. The Mets and Red Sox have been connected to him in recent days, but the Dodgers have also emerged as a suitor. Robertson went 8-3 with a 3.23 ERA and five saves in 69 games with the Yankees last year and has spent most of his career in the American League East, so the Red Sox would be a natural fit. He also lives in Rhode Island. While the 33-year-old hasn't seen many save chances the last several years with the Yanks, he did have a span of three straight seasons with 30-plus saves and would see his fantasy value skyrocket if he was closing games in Boston next year. In LA, he would likely serve as Kenley Jansen's setup man.

David Robertson Records Save Against Toronto
Aug. 17, 2018
The New York Yankees sent out reliever David Robertson to pitch the seventh inning against the Toronto Blue Jays Friday night. The game would ultimately end after seven, with rain causing the abbreviated affair. The 33-year-old Robertson, who served as the closer of the Chicago White Sox during his stint there, picked up his third save of the season, striking out two batters in an uneventful inning. The performance continues a significant month for Robertson, who's now gone seven consecutive appearances without conceding an earned run this month. This comes after allowing four runs in his final two performances of July against the Kansas City Royals.
David Robertson Seals Bullpen Capitulation
May. 23, 2018
The New York Yankees pitching had a performance to forget on Wednesday night as starter CC Sabathia was pounded for seven runs in 4 1/3 innings pitched. Fortunately for the left-hander, the offense was the complete opposite, once again a powerful force that scored 10 runs in the first five innings. The bullpen, however, failed to hold any lead handed to them, and David Robertson was at the forefront. The 33-year-old was called on in a difficult situation in the sixth and failed to preserve the lead. The big blow came with the bases loaded, as he allowed a three-run double that put his team down, 11-10. He was charged with the loss, as the Yankees moved a game and a half behind the Red Sox in the AL East.

David Robertson Gets Into And Out Of Massive Jam In Win
Apr. 19, 2018
In the eighth inning of Thursday's series opener against the Toronto Blue Jays, the New York Yankees held a 4-2 lead and sent reliever David Robertson to the mound. The usually steady 33-year-old ran into a world of trouble, as he allowed a leadoff hit and an ensuing pair of walks, loading the bases with no outs. Given his track record of escaping major jams, however, the Yankees probably felt most comfortable with Robertson on the mound and their faith in him paid off. After striking out the next batter, he gave up a bloop single, scoring one run and cutting the lead to one. Then, however, he struck out the next batter and induced a fly out to escape with the lead intact.

After dealing with a bout of food poisoning, New York Yankees reliever David Robertson finally made his spring training debut Saturday against the New York Mets. He faced just two batters and tossed just six pitches, but they were all strikes, resulting in two strikeouts. The 32-year-old appears very likely to be the club's eighth-inning pitcher as the setup man ahead Dellin Betances on the depth chart but behind Aroldis Chapman. Robertson returned to the Yankees last season after a move at the trade deadline from the Chicago White Sox. He appeared in 30 games for the club, going 5-0 with a 1.03 ERA, striking out 51 batters in 35 innings. Expect Robertson to see much more game time in the buildup to Opening Day.

David Robertson Could Be A Trade Piece
Jan. 7, 2018
New York Yankees reliever David Robertson could be traded, according to Joel Sherman of the New York Post. Sherman suggests that the Yankees may want to save money and prevent a luxury-tax hit, and Robertson's $13 million salary may be too much to hold on to. Robertson has a lot of closer's experience but will not close in the Bronx, as the Yankees currently have a top-tier closer in Aroldis Chapman. The Cardinals, who are without free agents Trevor Rosenthal and Seung Hwan Oh, are in need of a closer, and according to Sherman, could part with infield depth in Jedd Gyorko or Kolten Wong and/or a top pitching prospect like Jack Flaherty.
David Robertson Unlikely To Be Available For Game 1
Oct. 13, 2017
New York Yankees relief pitcher David Robertson is not expected to be available to pitch in Game 1 of the Championship Series on Friday, and manager Joe Girardi is unsure if closer Aroldis Chapman will be available. Robertson tossed 2 2/3 innings of scoreless ball in the team's Game 5 win over the Indians, so the Yanks want to rest him before the rest of the seven-game series. Chapman also threw two innings in that decisive victory. It'll be interesting to see if the struggling Dellin Betances is relied on if New York has a slim late-innings lead against the Astros on Friday.

David Robertson Gets Shot At Setup Job
Jul. 24, 2017
Arriving in New York after three years closing for the Chicago White Sox, David Robertson's role wasn't exact, but with New York set the final two innings, the seventh inning seemed likely. Dellin Betances has seen numerous struggles this year, however, and yesterday, Robertson was given a shot at the eighth inning. After Betances pitched a clean seventh, the 32-year-old tried to do the same the night after allowing a late home run. Robertson would match Betances, pitching a clean eighth with a strikeout included. At this point, expect both men to share setup duties and closer duties when Aroldis Chapman is unavailable.
Yankees Acquire Todd Frazier, David Robertson and Tommy Kahnle
Jul. 18, 2017
The New York Yankees pulled off a major trade in the midst of tonight's victory against the Minnesota Twins. The struggling team reinforced their playoff push by acquiring infielder Todd Frazier and relievers David Robertson and Tommy Kahnle from the Chicago White Sox. Frazier, 31, plays first and third base, immediately filling a hole the Yankees have struggled with on the corners of the infield. A two-time All-Star, he's hitting .207 with 16 home runs and 44 RBI this season. Robertson, meanwhile, is a former Yankee who's picked up 110 saves the past three years with Chicago. He figures to slot into a role in the back end of the bullpen, perhaps relieving the struggling Dellin Betances of his setup man duties. Finally, Tommy Kahnle is a 27-year-old New York native who was originally drafted by the Yankees. This season, he's recorded a 2.50 ERA in 37 games, striking out 60 batters in 36 innings. Like Robertson, Kahnle figures to be a major part of the struggling New York bullpen moving forward. In return, the club traded outfielder Tito Polo, left-handed pitcher Ian Clarkin, struggling reliever Tyler Clippard and outfielder Blake Rutherford. Rutherford is the centerpiece of the deal, ranked as one of the top prospects in baseball.
David Robertson Could Be Going Back To New York
Jul. 18, 2017
Chicago White Sox pitcher David Robertson could be on his way to the Yankees with third baseman Todd Frazier and pitcher Tommy Kahnle. More news will be released, but the trade should happen tonight after the White Sox finish their game with the Los Angeles Dodgers. Robertson has a 2.70 ERA and 0.96 WHIP as the White Sox closer this season, but will move to a setup role in New York behind Aroldis Chapman and Dellin Betances. His best season in New York was 2011 where he struck out 100 batters in 66 2/3 innings, posting a 1.08 ERA.

White Sox Activate David Robertson from the Paternity List
Jul. 6, 2017
The Chicago White Sox have activated their closer, David Robertson, from the paternity list. He will be back with the team when they open a series against the Rockies on Friday after an off day Thursday. Robertson had missed the three-game series in Oakland to be with his wife for the birth of their second child. As a corresponding move, the White Sox designated 25-year-old relief pitcher Michael Ynoa for assignment.

Relief pitcher Tommy Kahnle is likely to fill in as the temporary closer while Robertson is away.
David Robertson Will Be Away From Team

Robertson has a 5.87 ERA over the last 30 days, but does have a 1.17 WHIP over that time period and has 12 saves in 13 attempts.

David Robertson Gives Up a Walkoff Homer, Takes the Loss
Jun. 4, 2017
The Chicago White Sox's usually reliable closer David Robertson had a rough day on Sunday, taking the loss after allowing a walkoff three-run bomb to Justin Upton in the bottom of the ninth. It wasn't a save opportunity for Robertson, as he was tapped to come into the game to preserve a tie. He hit a batter, intentionally walked the next guy and then served up the Upton homer. It was his second loss of the season and his ERA jumped from 2.29 to 3.54 in a single day. Despite the rough outing, he's still got solid fantasy value as he's in no danger of losing the White Sox closer job and has a high likelihood of being traded to a contender this summer.

David Robertson Picks up His Eighth Save
May. 29, 2017
Chicago White Sox closer David Robertson earned his eighth save of the season on Sunday afternoon, pitching a clean ninth inning and protecting a one-run lead as the White Sox beat the Red Sox 5-4. He struck out two of the three batters he faced and got the job done with just 14 pitches. Robertson hadn't earned a save yet in May until picking up one over the Tigers on Saturday, and now he's notched saves three games in a row. Overall this season, the White Sox haven't been able to provide him with many save opportunities, but he's putting in good work with a 2.29 ERA and 28 strikeouts in 19 2/3 innings. His fantasy value will go up once he's traded to a contender that can offer him more opportunities to close out ballgames.

David Robertson Takes the Loss as Angels Walk Off on White Sox
May. 17, 2017
Chicago White Sox closer David Robertson got tagged with a tough loss on Tuesday night. After the White Sox rallied in the ninth inning to tie the game at 5-5 and take it into extra innings, Robertson pitched a clean 10th to preserve the tie. When the White Sox added a run in the top of the 11th, Robertson was in line for a win, but then the wheels came off. After a clean single, the Angels hit a couple of bloopers over the heads of infielders to tie the game at 6-6, and then designated hitter Albert Pujols hit a deep fly ball that careened off the shoulder of outfielder Leury Garcia to bring in the winning run. Robertson was definitely dealt some bad BABIP luck in this one, but it's a loss all the same for the stat line and for fantasy owners. Overall, he went 1 1/3 innings, allowing four hits and two earned runs while walking one. This was a tough one, but we know Robertson has an excellent track record and his closer job is safe.

David Robertson Picks up the Win in White Sox Walk-off
May. 13, 2017
Save opportunities have been few and far between for White Sox closer David Robertson, but Saturday he picked up a victory, thanks to a White Sox walk-off in the bottom of the ninth after he had pitched a scoreless top of the frame. He struck out two and walked one in the appearance. Robertson has picked up five saves in six opportunities on the season, but despite the low saves number, he's still been very effective, with a 2.13 ERA and 20 strikeouts in 12 2/3 innings pitched.
