Robertson signed with the Sugar Land Skeeters of the independent Atlantic League on Tuesday, Brandon Warne of ZoneCoverage.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Robertson was with the Diamondbacks on a minor-league deal this season but couldn't earn a call-up. The 32-year-old has appeared in 148 career major-league games, hitting a modest .262/.314/.328 with just one home run.

Robertson signed a minor-league deal with the Diamondacks on Wednesday, Chris Cotillo of SB Nation reports.
EDGE Analysis
Robertson has earned brief stints in the majors in each of the last four seasons, each with a diferent organization. The 32-year-old journeyman owns a .262/.314/.328 career slash line in 386 plate appearances. He doesn't look to be anything other than organizational depth for the Diamondbacks.

The Indians designated Robertson for assignment Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
He became expendable when the Tribe acquired Jay Bruce on Wednesday and needed to clear a spot on the 40-man roster. Robertson was on the Triple-A Columbus disabled list with hamstring issues and could remain there if he clears waivers.

Robertson was placed on the disabled list at Triple-A Columbus with left hamstring soreness.
EDGE Analysis
The 31-year-old slashed .225/.287/.338 over 32 games with the Tribe this season, but was sent back to Triple-A once Brandon Guyer (wrist) and Michael Brantley (ankle) returned from the DL. Robertson has enjoyed a great year with the Clippers, though, hitting .340 while scoring 24 runs and swiping seven bases through 43 contests. He'll return to providing organizational depth once his hamstring recovers.

Robertson was optioned to Triple-A Columbus on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
With Brandon Guyer (wrist) and Michael Brantley (ankle) both returning from the disabled list, Robertson was no longer needed as outfield depth. The 31-year-old will head back to Columbus where he'll continue to serve as organizational outfield depth.

Robertson will start in left field and bat ninth Sunday against the Twins, Jordan Bastian of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
With the Indians facing a spate of left-handed pitching of late and Michael Brantley (personal) on the paternity list, Robertson will earn his fifth straight start. Robertson has recorded just two hits in 18 at-bats over the last four contests, which won't give him much of a case to hold down anything more than the short end of a platoon in the outfield once Brantley returns.

Robertson went 2-for-4 with his first major-league home run, a three-run shot, and scored twice in Tuesday's loss to the Dodgers.
EDGE Analysis
It took 351 career plate appearances spread out over four organizations before Robertson finally cleared a big-league fence. The outfielder has been more than serviceable since being recalled in mid-May. Through 21 games, Robertson is slashing .286/.340/.469 with just two strikeouts in 49 at-bats.

Robertson will start in right field and lead off Sunday against the White Sox, Jordan Bastian of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
With the White Sox bringing a lefty starter (Jose Quintana) to the hill for the second straight game, Robertson will once again enter the lineup in place of Lonnie Chisenhall, but he'll move up from the No. 9 spot all the way to the top of the order with normal table setter Jason Kipnis joining Chisenhall on the bench. The move to the leadoff spot will give Robertson more appeal in DFS contests, but the ceiling is still somewhat limited for the career .272/.322/.332 hitter.

Robertson went 2-for-5 with a double and three RBI in Sunday's 8-0 win over Kansas City.
EDGE Analysis
Robertson drilled a two-run double to right in the second inning and added an RBI single to center in the fourth. The offensive outburst came out of nowhere, as Robertson had just one RBI in 33 at-bats before Sunday. Don't count on too many games of production like that - the 31-year-old Robertson has only 33 RBI in 131 career games.

Robertson will start in left field and bat second Sunday against the Royals, Paul Hoynes of Cleveland.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Injuries to the Indians outfield have opened up regular playing time for Robertson over the last couple of weeks, but he hasn't been able to do much with the opportunity, slashing .212/.297/.303 since his mid-May promotion to the big leagues. With Lonnie Chisenhall (concussion) on track to return from the disabled list ahead of Tuesday's series opener with the Rockies, Robertson could settle back into a bench role before long.
