The Los Angeles Angels acquired catcher Chuckie Robinson from the Chicago White Sox in exchange for cash considerations on Wednesday, adding depth to their roster.
Despite batting just .129 in 26 games for the White Sox last season, Robinson's defensive prowess stood out as he threw out 21.4 percent of attempted base stealers, ranking third among AL catchers.
To accommodate Robinson, the Angels designated right-hander Davis Daniel for assignment, who had a challenging season with a 6.23 ERA over six starts.
At 30 years old, Robinson has demonstrated potential as a defensive catcher, despite recent struggles at the plate, which may offer strategic advantages for the Angels.
