The Philadelphia Phillies ink Nate Robertson
The Phillies have signed 32-year old lefty starting pitcher Nate Robertson to a minor league deal. He pitched in 19 games (18 starts) earlier this season for the Marlins and he was 6-8 with a 5.47 ERA and a 1.50 WHIP. Robertson has now pitched in 221 games (187 starts) in his 9 years in the majors and he is 57-77 with 1 save, a 4.97 ERA and a 1.47 WHIP. It never hurts to bring in a guy like Robertson to help the team in September.
