"Excited and blessed to have been offered and accepted a position as a pitching coach in the Detroit Tigers organization. In 2026 I will be serving as the Bullpen Coach at the Triple A affiliate Toledo Mud Hens. Collegiately, Robbins pitched for both Troy University and Rollins College before the Blue Jays selected the left-handed pitcher in the 20th round of the 2019 draft. Robbins made his professional debut shortly after, authoring a 2.84 ERA and 3.26 FIP in 19 innings pitched."
"Due to the pandemic, Robbins and all other minor league players missed the 2020 season, as it was cancelled. He then missed the 2021 season due to Tommy John surgery, before returning with a vengeance in 2022. Beginning the season with the Single-A Dunedin Blue Jays, the left-handed pitcher had a 1.56 ERA and 2.77 FIP in 17.1 innings pitched. Upon his promotion to High-A, Robbins made nine starts in 10 appearances, finishing his Vancouver Canadians tenure with a 3.82 ERA and 4.23 FIP."
"Robbins' ERA with the Canadians was inflated due to one start on Jul. 23, where he gave up six earned runs in three innings of work; none of his other outings saw him give up more than two runs. His next turn out on Jul. 31 was his best start of his career, striking out 11 in five innings of one-hit ball."
