Draft and Pro CareerThe Mets selected him in the 3rd round (92nd overall) of the 2026 MLB Draft. He was ranked around No. 29 overall by MLB Pipeline pre-draft (and similarly high by other outlets), so many viewed the pick as a potential steal after he fell due to some swing/contact questions. 

He signed for about $1 million (overslot relative to the pick’s value).

He debuted in the Mets system in the Florida Complex League (FCL Mets) shortly after signing, then moved to Single-A St. Lucie Mets in late July 2026.

Prospect Profile and OutlookRobbins is known for impressive bat speed and pole-to-pole power that emerged more fully at Texas (he shifted toward a more uppercut swing). He has shown the ability to hit for average and get on base, plus average speed and capable defense in center or the corners (projects as a corner outfielder long-term for many evaluators). 

Concerns include a unique/open stance and swing that some scouts worry could struggle against pro pitching, plus an uptick in strikeouts with the added power approach. 

He ranks as a solid prospect in the Mets system (variously placed in the top 10–15 organizationally shortly after the draft; one source had him as high as No. 11 early on). He is seen as having a chance to reach the majors around 2028–2029 if development goes well.

2026 - A+/Brooklyn - 19-AB, 1-HR, 2-RBI, .316/.409/.474/.883

A-St. Lucie - 77-AB, 4-HR, 16-RBI, .273/.371/.455/.825

COMBINED - 96-AB, 27-K, 28.1%

In short, he’s a recent college standout and Mets third-rounder with real power upside who’s just starting his pro career in Single-A.
