(3/27/13) Rangers reliever Nate Robertson is "inclined" to head to Triple-A as requested by the Rangers, but he's also keeping his options open by looking for a major-league job.

"Everybody has been first-class to me," Robertson told MLB.com. "I'll let my agent handle that. If there is an opportunity with another team, they'll help me. I have been encouraged by what they say. They like me and I had a good spring but they had to make a decision."

Robertson has allowed just two earned runs in 11 1/3 innings of work this spring.
