Atlanta claimed Robinson off waivers from the Dodgers on Sunday and optioned him to Triple-A Gwinnett.
Gwinnett's season came to an end Sunday, so unless Atlanta recalls him at some point during the final week of the campaign, Robinson will have to wait until 2026 to make his organizational debut. The 30-year-old catcher holds a career .131/.169/.192 slash line over 138 plate appearances in parts of three seasons in the majors across stops with the Reds, White Sox and Dodgers.

Rotowire
The Dodgers optioned Robinson to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday.
Robinson joined the big club Saturday when Will Smith (hand) landed on the IL, but his services are no longer needed now that Dalton Rushing (shin) is healthy. Robinson will likely finish the year at Triple-A, where he's slashed .261/.330/.368 with 46 RBI and 41 runs scored through 75 games.

Dodgers' Chuckie Robinson: Summoned to Los Angeles
Rotowire
The Dodgers recalled Robinson from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Saturday.
Robinson's presence on the big-league roster is needed with Will Smith (hand) landing on the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move. Robinson has a career .364 OPS over 51 major-league games, so fantasy managers need not rush to the waiver wire to pick him up. He's slated to work as the Dodgers' backup catcher behind Ben Rortvedt until Dalton Rushing (shin) or Smith is ready to return from the IL.

Dodgers' Chuckie Robinson: Optioned to Triple-A
Rotowire
The Dodgers optioned Robinson to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Monday.
Robinson was called up by the Dodgers on Saturday to serve as an emergency catcher due to the absences of Will Smith (hand) and Dalton Rushing (shin). Even with Rushing on the 10-day IL and Smith day-to-day with his injury, the Dodgers needed to make room on the 28-man roster for a returning Max Muncy (oblique). Robinson will head back to Oklahoma City, where he has slashed .259/.344/.361 with four home runs and 28 RBI in 189 plate appearances.

Dodgers' Chuckie Robinson: Claimed off waivers by Dodgers
Rotowire
The Dodgers claimed Robinson off waivers Saturday.
Robinson was DFA'd by the Angels on Wednesday, but he'll remain in Los Angeles after being picked up by the Dodgers. The 30-year-old catcher slashed .272/.315/.388 with one home run and 18 RBI over 112 plate appearances with Triple-A Salt Lake this season. Robinson will likely remain in the minors, but he could receive a call up to the big leagues if Will Smith or Dalton Rushing were to miss time. Tyler Glasnow (shoulder) was transferred to the 60-day IL in a corresponding move to make room on the 40-man roster for Robinson.

Angels' Chuckie Robinson: Jettisoned from 40-man roster
Rotowire
The Angels designated Robinson for assignment Wednesday.
The Angels DFA'd Robinson and Tim Anderson, which made room on the 40-man roster for Scott Kingery and Robert Stephenson (elbow). Robinson was traded by the White Sox to the Angels in December, but the 30-year-old catcher was unable to crack the Halos' Opening Day roster. Robinson is slashing .272/.315/.388 with one home run and 18 RBI across 112 plate appearances in Triple-A this season, and he could garner interest from teams looking to add depth behind the plate.

The Angels acquired Robinson from the White Sox on Wednesday in exchange for cash considerations.
The White Sox have acquired Kyle Teel and Matt Thaiss over the last week, so they had a surplus of catching depth. With Logan O'Hoppe and Travis d'Arnaud projected to be the Angels' catching duo in the majors, Robinson is likely to begin the 2025 season as depth at Triple-A Salt Lake.

Robinson appeared in 25 games for the Reds a season ago, struggling to a .136 average with two homers, five RBI and three runs scored. He'll have a shot to make the Opening Day roster during spring camp but will likely need to beat out Tyler Stephenson (collarbone) or Luke Maile to do so.
