It's tough to say that the Philadelphia Phillies made the perfect decision when they went out and signed David Robertson on Sunday night. Robertson has already pitched in Philadelphia throughout his career and was staying ready during the early stages of the year.

The Philadelphia Phillies are set to sign veteran right-handed reliever David Robertson to a one-year, $5.5 million deal prorated at $16 million.

With the bullpen as a recurring problem and a club-record payroll this season, acquiring another arm at the trade deadline could come at a hefty price for the Phillies.
