Kramer Robertson
Kramer Robertson, a former All-SEC shortstop for LSU, joined the athletic department in January of 2025 and serves as an athletics performance analyst.
Robertson’s role will have him responsible for analyzing the success of each sports team as it relates to competition and recruiting.
“His role is one that’s going to allow us to take a deeper dive into competitive success and recruiting success and some of those things to then look at the investment we’re going to make,” LSU Executive Deputy Athletic Director Keli Zinn said.
Robertson, the son of legendary LSU women’s basketball coach Kim Mulkey, played four years with the Tigers and served as the starting shortstop in his final two seasons with the program. He played in 212 games, starting 180, during his LSU career, posting a .292 batting average with 45 doubles, 11 home runs, 175 RBI and 27 stolen bases.
Robertson earned first-team All-SEC honors in 2016 and was second-team selection the following season. In 2017, Robertson earned third-team all-America honors from Collegiate Baseball after batting .307 with 18 doubles, eight home runs, 43 RBI and a nation’s leading 85 runs scored. Batting leadoff for the Tigers in 2017, Robertson led LSU to the national championship series at the CWS.
He earned SEC Academic Honor Roll distinction in 2017 and graduated from LSU in December of 2017 with a degree in sport administration.
Following his playing days with the Tigers, Robertson was drafted in the fourth round of the 2017 MLB Draft by the St. Louis Cardinals. He spent several years in the Cardinals organization and was named to St. Louis’ postseason travel roster in October of 2021. He was called up to the Major Leagues on May 10, 2022 and made his MLB debut that night as a pinch-runner. The next day, Robertson had an RBI in what was his only major league at-bat.
From there, Robertson moved on to the Braves and Mets organizations, before being claimed off of waivers by the Cardinals in August of 2022. Robertson spent the 2023 season with Triple-A Memphis, playing 121 games with three home runs, 37 RBI and 23 stolen bases.
He retired from baseball following the 2023 season with a career minor league batting average of .240 with 41 home runs, 247 RBI and 103 stolen bases.
Robertson was born on Sept. 20, 1994 in Ruston, Louisiana.
