Miami has removed Robertson from the closer role.
In 44 innings with the Mets this year, Robertson hurled a 2.05 ERA, collecting 14 saves and striking out 48 batters. Meanwhile, the 38-year-old has a 7.20 ERA in 10 innings and four saves so far with the Marlins, forcing the team to turn to Scott, who has a 2.
59 ERA in 59 innings this year. Perhaps the final straw of the Marlins’ patience with Robertson came on Saturday when he gave up two runs in the top of the ninth inning to blow the save to the fourth-place Nationals, his sixth time doing so this year.USA TODAY Sports via Reuters Con By dealing Robertson, who signed a one-year, $10 million contract with the Mets prior to the 2023 season, the Mets acquired Marco Vargas and Ronald Hernandez, two teenage prospects who rank No. 8 and No. 20, respectively, on the Mets’ MLB Pipeline prospect rankings. “We’d pitch great, and then we wouldn’t hit. And then we’d hit great, and then we wouldn’t pitch. We just couldn’t put it together,” . “It was very frustrating, especially with all the high expectations we had coming into the spring and the feel we had leaving the spring.”Robertson added that he would “absolutely” be open to a reunion with the Mets this offseason and that he had “No complaints and nothing bad to say about the Mets. I had a great time there.” The Marlins were surprising buyers at the trade deadline and now sit three games back of the third NL Wild Card spot.USA TODAY Sports via Reuters ConShare this article:
