    Robinson touched 94 mph as a sophomore but had labrum surgery as a junior. Robinson had made five starts down the stretch of the high school season, though, and was regaining arm strength, maintaining his 88-91 mph fastball deep into his fifth start and touching 92. He wasn't throwing many sliders, but his changeup is his second-best pitch anyway, and he's shown a good feel for it. The question on Robinson is whether his medical background and lack of a breaking ball will outweigh his projectable 6-foot-5, 200-pound frame for teams. Robinson is a Nevada-Las Vegas signee.
