Robertson got the win in the Phillies' victory over the St. Louis Cardinals in Game 1 of the NL wild-card series on October 7. The next day, he strained his right calf muscle jumping in celebration of Bryce Harper's home run in the second inning of Game 2. The Phillies won that game, 2-0, to advance to the NL Division Series, where they beat the Atlanta Braves, three games to one.
Robertson was not active for that series.
The right-hander proved his health with a bullpen session in San Diego on Monday. He also went through fielding drills.
Having Robertson's arm and experience is a plus for the Phillies. He has pitched in 34 postseason games, most of anyone on the staff.
