Baltimore Orioles outright former Toronto Blue Jays outfielder

Robertson, 28, has never played for the Orioles. He was claimed off waivers from the Pirates in December.

Since this is Robertson's first career outright and he has less than three years of big league service time, he doesn't have the right to elect free agency.

He was drafted by the Blue Jays in 2019 and didn't have a lot of prospect hype as he climbed the minor league ladder.

He showed flashes of a breakout in 2025, however, which got him up to the majors with the Blue Jays.

He eventually lost his roster spot and the White Sox acquired Robertson from the Blue Jays in July. In the offseason, he went to the Pirates and then the Orioles.

During his brief major league action, he put up a dismal .129/.173/.143 line, but in a tiny sample of 75 plate appearances.

His 354 Triple-A plate appearances were much more impressive. His 24.9% strikeout rate was above average but an improvement for him personally, as he was at 31.3% the year previously.

His 13.6% walk rate at Triple-A last year was quite strong and he also hit 20 home runs in those 354 trips to the plate. That led to a .289/.387/.571 line and 148 wRC+ at that level.

Since Robertson cleared waivers, it seems major league clubs were a bit skeptical of that production.

If his 2025 was a legitimate late-bloomer breakout, the O's could benefit down the line if he earns his way back onto the roster.
