Robertson cleared waivers Wednesday and has been outrighted to Triple-A Tacoma, Greg Johns at MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Robertson was claimed off waivers by the Mariners earlier in the offseason, but was designated for assignment after the club finalized a deal with Hisashi Iwakuma. By virtue of not being claimed off waivers, he'll now head to Triple-A Tacoma, where the veteran outfielder will likely begin the season.

Robertson was designated for assignment on Friday, Bob Dutton of The News Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

With the Mariners' signing of Hisashi Iwakuma being made official Friday, the club opted to DFA Robertson to clear a roster spot. Robertson had been claimed off waivers early in the offseason following a season in which he batted .280 with seven RBI in 37 games with the Angels.

EDGE Analysis

Robertson sent the majority of the season in the minors last year, but he enjoyed some success in 37 games with the Angels, hitting .280 and striking out just seven times in 75 at bats. He'll likely compete for a fourth outfield spot with his new club in spring training.

Robertson was recalled from Triple-A Salt Lake on Tuesday, Eric Stephen of SB Nation reports.

EDGE Analysis

Although not included among the team's first wave of September callups, Robertson will get an opportunity to serve in a reserve role with the big club over the final weeks of the season. Robertson hit .288 in a small sample with the Angels earlier this season, but he posted a less than stellar .265/.332/.343 batting line with Salt Lake.

Robertson was recalled from Triple-A Salt Lake prior to Sunday's game against the Athletics, Bill Shaikin of the Los Angeles Times reports. The Angels had been getting by with only four outfielders for the last handful of games, so the addition of Robertson will give the team some added depth at the position. With only the struggling Matt Joyce and long-time minor-leaguer Efren Navarro ahead of him on the depth chart in left field, Robertson could have a shot at contending for regular at-bats.

Robertson was optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake on Saturday. He lost out on the final roster spot to Efren Navarro and Taylor Featherston. The Angels currently have just four active outfielders, so if one of them gets banged up, Robertson could still get the call later.

Robertson was traded to the Angels on Thursday. Robertson was moved as part of Thursday's midnight deadline that required teams to add players to the 40-man roster or risk losing them to the Rule 5 draft. He joins an Angels club with a loaded outfield, making it doubtful he will start the season in the majors.

Robertson is out of the lineup Monday against the Royals. Robertson has picked up the bulk of the starts in left field over the last 10 days, and has done well in accruing a .303 average and .374 on-base percentage in 132 at-bats. However, Robertson has very limited power and in making his MLB debut this season at 28 years old, he'll have little chance of opening 2015 as a starting outfielder for the team.

Robertson went 0-for-2 with a run scored after replacing Mike Carp in left field Saturday night. The Rangers continue to give Robertson semi-regular playing time, as he'll typically slot into the lineup when the opposition sends a left-handed starter to the mound.

Daniel Robertson went 2-for-5 with a career-high four RBI in Sunday's loss to the Blue Jays. Robertson was in the lineup only because Alex Rios (ankle) is banged up, and he wound up driving in four of the Rangers' six runs. The 28-year-old has now tallied three straight multi-hit games, but there remains no regular spot for him to play when the rest of the Rangers' outfielders are healthy.
