Blue Jays are promoting outfielders Will Robertson According to the report by Trevor Hahn of news Tribune Sports, to the Grand Slam. There is room in Toronto’s 40-man lineup, so the only corresponding move required to bring Robertson into the fold will be to clear the space on the active roster.
Robertson, 27, is Toronto’s fourth-round draft pick in 2019. Robertson’s career was slightly delayed by the canceled minor league season in 2020 after he received a taste of professional balls during his draft year, and when he returned in 2021 he struggled 56 games in 56 games, he played 94 times in 56 games with a height of wrc+94+ in 56 games as he hit 94 times and he hit 94 times. The next year he again put forward the relatively medium figure, this time in 90 games, slashed .215/.291/.401 (89 WRC+) in 90 games. Overall, Robertson’s approach comes with a lot of strikeouts and limited power, which makes it difficult for him to average averages early in his career.
However, during the 2023 double-A repetition process, the situation began to change. That year, Robertson had a WRC+ of 118.245/.323/.488. He raised his walking rate to 9.7%, the best since the draft year, which is his draft rate, lowered strikeout rate by 2 points and won 19 home runs in 103 games. It was his second trip in Double-A at the age of 25, which was a strong performance, but it was still enough to get him promoted to Triple-A Buffalo for the first time in his career. Although Robertson’s walking rate and strength began last year, his strikeout rate jumped to 31.3% in 2024 as he struggled with a Triple-A fight with a 95 WRC+ of 95 was eventually cut by 0.226/.319/.429.
Robertson’s 2024 performance seems to show that he doesn’t have much path to the major leagues, but so far he has changed that narrative in his brilliant 2025 season. Robertson smashed the ball to a .288/.410/.582 diagonal line in 51 games at the club’s Buffalo branch. He only made 188 plates and 12 home runs, his time was as high as 17.0%, and he edited at 23.9% less than since 2019. To sum up, this gives him 159 WRC+, which is fourth in the International League this year. Robertson is not a prospect, as he doesn’t even rank on the MLB.com’s top 30 Blue Jays Prospects list. But, no matter what the player’s prospects are, Robertson’s numbers are the type that draws your attention from major league clubs.
This is especially true for Bluebirds Club Anthony Santander and Daulton Varsho to the injured list. Alan Roden,,,,, Myers GrassJonaton Clase, Addison Bargerand Nathan Lukes In recent weeks, with senior right field players, mixing and matching outfield with Jayce in the outfield George SpringerSportsnet’s Ben Nicholson Smith was one of his picks up this afternoon, as Lukes scraped off from today’s lineup due to neck discomfort. Robertson’s call may indicate that Lux’s neck problem is serious enough to stay on the injured list, although Robertson’s astonishing game of the year is also likely to force the issue in the eyes of Blue Jays Brass.
