Robinson wasted little time making an impression, overpowering hitters throughout his outing and recording four strikeouts in six batters faced. The results could have looked even cleaner, as one of the two hits allowed came on a ball that was lost in the sun defensively. The 5-11, 167-pound right-hander features a lean, projectable frame with a loose arm action that allows the ball to come out cleanly. He worked 84-87 mph, touching 88, with the fastball and paired it with a 68-72 mph slider that proved to be his primary secondary offering. The slider showed the ability to miss bats and helped him pile up two strikeouts throughout the outing. He also flashed a changeup at 82 mph, throwing it just once, but landing it for a strike and offering a glimpse of a potential third pitch moving forward. Robinson's tempo stands out immediately, working at a very quick pace and consistently applying pressure to hitters.
