He has speed to burn, and is fun to watch on defense. Like you mentioned, that late 2010 push was impressive. I thought he would be the starting CF in AAA this year, also. Had Cabrera failed, and Cain been promoted, he might have gotten that chance. For some reason they liked Orlando better. Neither of them will end up in KC, probably. But I think Robinson compares to Dyson now, and is 2 years younger. If the Royals want to keep that 4th/5th outfielder type to substitute late and steal some bases, he might have a chance. Other than that, he will probably be gone after the 2012 season. I have been a fan of Robinson’s for a few years now. He has speed to burn, and is fun to watch on defense.
