Jacob Robson: Continuing career in Australia

Robson signed a contract Monday with the Sydney Blue Sox of the Australian Baseball League.

The 25-year-old outfielder looked like he might have had a chance at making his MLB debut this season after posting a .750 OPS at Triple-A Toledo in 2019, but the Tigers opted not to include him in their 60-man roster pool ahead of summer camp after he sustained a concussion during spring training. Now that he's apparently recovered from the head injury, Robson will cross the Pacific Ocean to continue his career abroad.
