Robert Mitchell Segedin (born November 10, 1988) is an American professional baseball third baseman in the Los Angeles Dodgers organization.
Career
Segedin attended Northern Valley Regional High School in Old Tappan, New Jersey, and Tulane University.[1] Playing college baseball for the Tulane Green Wave, Segedin was named a semifinalist for the Golden Spikes Award in 2010, his junior year.[2] The New York Yankees selected Segedin in the third round of the 2010 MLB draft, with the 112th overall selection. Segedin signed with the Yankees, foregoing his senior year, receiving a signing bonus of $377,500.[3] He played for the Staten Island Yankees of the Class A-Short Season New York–Penn League after signing.[4]
Segedin began the 2011 season with the Charleston RiverDogs of the Class A South Atlantic League, and received a midseason promotion to the Tampa Yankees of the Class A-Advanced Florida State League.[4] While playing for the Trenton Thunder of the Class AA Eastern League in 2013, Segedin injured his hip and underwent surgery to correct a femoral acetabular impingement.[5][6] He played for Trenton and the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders in 2014, and for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in 2015.[1]
After the 2015 season, the Yankees traded Segedin and a player to be named later or cash to the Los Angeles Dodgers for Tyler Olson and Ronald Torreyes.[7] The Dodgers invited him to spring training[8] and he was assigned to the Triple-A Oklahoma City Dodgers to begin the season.[9]
