KC calls up slugging prospect Robinson | Royals.com - Dick Kaegel - At the moment the Royals were announcing the start of pitcher Kyle Zimmer's professional journey, first baseman Clint Robinson was marking the pinnacle of his six-season trek to the team's Major League roster. - While Zimmer's signing press conference was going on Thursday inside Kauffman Stadium, Robinson was stepping onto a bus outside the stadium to join his Kansas City teammates for the flight to Pittsburgh. - A left-handed power hitter, Robinson is looking forward to his big league debut at age 27. He was drafted in 2007 after his senior year at Troy University and has moved steadily up the organization chain, advancing a level each year. - In 2010 with Northwest Arkansas, he won the Texas League Triple Crown with a .335 average, 29 home runs and 98 RBIs. He had big numbers last year, too, with Omaha -- .326, 23 homers and 100 RBIs.
