Acquired: 2017 Draft - Round 4
RuleV: 2020
Physical Description: Short and lean build. There is room to add some to the frame, but for his height he is built well.
Hit: Open stance. Slight bend in the knees. Hands are shoulder height.Toe tap on the load. Sprays the ball to all fields and goes with the pitch well. Covers the strike zone well. Patient hitter with good knowledge of the zone, which does translate to walks, but also makes him strikeout prone if he is too careful. His patience to get him in hitters counts helps the hit tool play up. Grade: 45
Power: Quick hands generate power. Likely to be more of a gap threat than anything else. He might run into some over the fence, but his swing is built more for line drives. Grade: 30
Field: His glove can play multiple positions.Works hard and doesn't hesitate to give up his body to make a play. Good instincts help him to cover ground. Grade: 45
Arm: While the glove can play anywhere, Robertson's arm is not as strong. It likely excels at second more than anywhere, but can be usable at short because of the accuracy. Grade: 45
Run: His speed helps his game on both sides of the ball. Defensively, his speed will show through a little more. Smart baseball player, and that helps the speed play up. Grade: 50
Overall: Robertson's tools play up because he is a smart player who works hard. He can become a nice utility infielder for a big league club because of his defensive versatility and ability to get into hitters counts. He's gotten consistently better, but will need to see continued improvements in his offensive abilities to reach his utility ceiling.
