Rob Whalen is one of the most popular and richest Professional Baseball Player who was born on January 31, 1994 in Stroudsburg, United States. Robert D. Whalen, born January 31, 1994, is an American professional baseball pitcher with the New York Mets. He was a Major League Baseball (MLB) pitcher for the Atlanta Braves as well as the Seattle Mariners.
Whalen and Max Povse, who were both traded to the Seattle Mariners in exchange for Alex Jackson (and Tyler Pike), were traded on November 28, 2016. Whalen was assigned on September 1, 2018.
On July 24, the Mets traded Whalen and John Gant to the Atlanta Braves for Juan Uribe and Kelly Johnson. The Braves assigned Whalen to their A Advanced affiliate, the Carolina Mudcats of the Carolina League. In 2016, Whalen began the season with the Mississippi Braves of the Class AA Southern League, and was promoted to the Gwinnett Braves of the Class AAA International League in July.
Whalen announced his retirement from professional baseball on February 25, 2019, citing his battle with depression and anxiety as the main reason for doing so.
Whalen, despite being a good ground ball pitcher, stated that he would seek out the strikeout whenever there was a two-strike count. At the suggestion of Dennis Lewallyn (Mississippi Braves pitching coach), Whalen began to focus on the strikeout and his strikeouts per nine innings rose through the 2016 season. This led to him being promoted to the major leagues.
