Eh - he's a lefthanded Munoz. Defense, approach, all of it.
He absolutely mauled righies in his minor league career and showed a surprising amount of pop for a utility player.
I said when we acquired Munoz that I'd have some use for him if he hit lefthanded, well that's pretty much what Robinson is. He has a chance to be a pretty useful 25th man on the roster which makes him more valuable than Garcia.
It's a 'meh' deal but a fairly useful one, especially since he still has an option year left. I don't see anything to complain about with this deal and if the !@#$ing guy would go get Harper and then move Martinez for a 'stuff' lefty instead of a 'name' lefty, we'd be in pretty good shape.
There's always been a path towards contention with this team if Mozeliak has the juevos to pull it off.
Sadly, he doesn't.
