My Take
What I admire about David Robertson is the quiet durability of his craft. A seventeen-season relief pitcher who suited up for eight teams isn't a coincidence; it's proof that every clubhouse wanted him for the high-leverage moments nobody else wanted. The 2009 World Series ring and the 2011 All-Star nod are nice headlines, but to me his real legacy is reliability. Closers get the glory, yet it's the steady setup men like D-Rob who hold games together inning after inning. I have a soft spot for players whose value shows up in trust rather than highlight reels, and Robertson is exactly that.
