The Los Angeles Dodgers selected Robertson in the 7th round, with the 221st overall selection, of the 2019 Major League Baseball draft.[1] Robertson spent his first professional season with the rookie-level Arizona League Dodgers and Ogden Raptors. He did not play in a game in 2020 due to the cancellation of the minor league season because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[2]

In 2021, Robertson was invited to spring training by the Dodgers.[3][4] He played the 2021 season with the Double-A Tulsa Drillers,[5] where he was 2–4 with a 4.30 ERA in 39 games while striking out 63 in 58+2⁄3 innings.[6] In 2022, he pitched in 44 games for Tulsa and nine for the Triple-A Oklahoma City Dodgers, with a combined 4.43 ERA.[6]

He began the 2023 season with Oklahoma City, making 24 appearances and logging a 2.13 ERA with 37 strikeouts and seven saves in 25+1⁄3 innings pitched.[7] On June 6, 2023, Robertson was selected to the 40-man roster and promoted to the major leagues for the first time.[8] He made his major league debut against the Cincinnati Reds on June 7, pitching two scoreless innings with three strikeouts. His first MLB strikeout was of Elly De La Cruz.[9] He pitched 10+1⁄3 innings over nine games, allowing seven earned runs for a 6.10 ERA.[10]

Boston Red Sox

[edit]

On July 25, 2023, the Dodgers traded Robertson and Justin Hagenman to the Boston Red Sox for Kiké Hernández.[11] He was activated by Boston on August 6, and optioned to the Triple-A Worcester Red Sox on August 9.[12] He was later recalled to Boston twice during September.[13]

St. Louis Cardinals

[edit]

On December 8, 2023, Robertson was traded to the St. Louis Cardinals, along with Victor Santos, in exchange for Tyler O'Neill.[14] He was optioned to the Triple–A Memphis Redbirds to begin the 2024 season.[15] In 8 games for St. Louis, Robertson posted a 4.38 ERA with 14 strikeouts over 12+1⁄3 innings pitched. He was designated for assignment by the Cardinals on August 11, 2024.[16]

Los Angeles Angels

[edit]

On August 13, 2024, Robertson was claimed off waivers by the Los Angeles Angels.[17] In 10 games for the Triple–A Salt Lake Bees, he struggled to a 6.92 ERA with 17 strikeouts over 13 innings. Robertson was designated for assignment by the Angels on September 15.[18]
