Fantasy Analysis
Robinson mainly served as a pinch-hitter during his first stint with the Cardinals and produced just one hit during the month of May. Overall, he posted 14 hits, including a home run, in 45 at-bats. Allen Craig is expected to receive the majority of starts in the outfield while Jay is sidelined so Fantasy owners should view Robinson as a marginal option in NL-only formats. (Updated 05/15/2012).
