Newsbreakers

September 30, 2009

Robinson Tejeda gave up three earned runs on four hits over five innings in Wednesday's 4-3 win at the Yankees. He had three walks with five strikeouts, and surrendered two homers.

Our View:

The game was tied at 3-3 when Tejeda exited, so he ends the night with a no-decision rather than a win for his decent performance. He bounced back after issuing five earned runs over 4.1 innings in his previous start against Minnesota.

September 25, 2009

Robinson Tejeda was roughed up for six runs (five earned) on two hits over 4.1 innings in Friday's 9-4 loss to the Twins at Kauffman Stadium. He had seven walks with three strikeouts.

Our View:

Tejeda had poor control tonight, and fell off track after allowing one or less earned runs in each of his previous four starts.

September 20, 2009

Robinson Tejeda pitched six innings of one-run ball on Sunday, helping the Royals to hard-fought 2-1 victory over the White Sox on the road.

Our View:

Tejeda has pitched very effectively since being inserted into the Royals' rotation earlier this month. In four starts, he is now 3-0 with a miniscule 0.81 ERA. He's likely pitched his way into the team's 2010 starting five.

September 17, 2009

The Kansas City Star reports that right-hander Robinson Tejeda is dealing with a blister on the middle finger of his pitching hand.

Our View:

The blister apparently is affecting how he throws his changeup, and the Royals are concerned. They'll watch him closely in his next start on Sunday against the White Sox. Tejeda has only allowed one run in three starts since joining the rotation in place of an injured Gil Meche and could be a nice boost for AL-only teams.

September 15, 2009

Robinson Tejeda only surrendered one earned run on two hits over five innings in Tuesday's 11-1 win at Detroit. He issued four walks with five strikeouts.

Our View:

It was a solid outing for Tejeda, despite the four free passes. He improved his record to 3-1 and trimmed his ERA to 3.09. He impressively only allowed one earned run over his three starts (16.1 innings) in September.

September 9, 2009

Robinson Tejeda silenced the Tigers on Wednesday night, allowing no runs in six innings, as Kansas City won 5-1 at home.

Our View:

In two starts this season, the usual reliever Tejeda has now allowed only four hits in 11.1 innings. He could very well be landing himself a spot in Kansas City's 2010 rotation.

September 4, 2009

Robinson Tejeda only allowed one hit over 5.1 scoreless innings in Friday's 2-1 loss to the Angels at Kauffman Stadium. He had two walks and fired six strikeouts.

Our View:

The Royals were leading 1-0 when Tejeda exited, so he ends the night with a no-decision. He did a fine job while making a spot-start in place of the injured Gil Meche (shoulder fatigue).

September 4, 2009

Robinson Tejeda will make a spot-start in place of the ailing Gil Meche (shoulder fatigue) tonight against the Angels, according to MLB.com.

Our View:

Tejeda will be making his first start of 2009, and the 48th of his career. He has a 4.07 ERA and 1.38 ERA over 42 innings of relief, and is not a recommended fantasy option.

June 20, 2009

According to ESPN.com, the Royals activated reliever Robinson Tejeda from the 15-day disabled list on Saturday.

Our View:

Tejeda is a solid middle reliever and will help a struggling Royals bullpen. He holds a 1.69 ERA and 16 strikeouts in 10.2 innings this season. Kyle Davies was demoted to Triple-A in a corresponding move.

June 11, 2009

Robinson Tejeda will start his minor league rehab assignment on Thursday with Double-A Northwest Arkansas. He has not pitched for the Royals since being diagnosed with tendinitis in his right rotator cuff on May 20.

Our View:

Tejeda is a strong middle relief option for the Royals. He has 16 strikeouts through 10.2 innings of work and carries a 1.69 ERA.

May 25, 2009

Robinson Tejeda has been placed on the 15-day DL by the Royals with tendinitis in his right rotator cuff, according to the Associated Press.

Our View:

He had a 2.65 ERA and a poor 1.53 WHIP over 17 innings of relief, but held some fantasy value with 23 strikeouts. The DL move is retroactive to May 21.
