The Brewers selected Roberson in the 29th round of the 1992 MLB draft out of the University of North Florida in Jacksonville, Florida,[1] where he pitched for the UNF Ospreys. He finished his college career with a 36-6 mark and still holds the career record for the most strikeouts (360) and complete games (24) at UNF.[2] Besides, he was a two-time NAIA All-America pitcher at UNF and majored in accounting in college, getting his degree in 1994 with a 3.91 GPA and highest academic honors.[2]

Roberson posted a 12-8 record with a 2.60 earned run average for Class A Stockton Ports in 1993,[3] earning Pitcher of the Year honors in the California League.[2] In 1994, he went 15-8 with a 2.83 at Double A El Paso Diablos, being promoted to Triple A New Orleans Zephyrs in 1995, where he appeared in two games before joining the Brewers in the month of May.[3]

Roberson was 6-4 with a 5.76 ERA for Milwaukee in 26 games (13 starts), striking out 40 batters while walking 37 in 84+13 innings of work.[1] However, arm problems surfaced which forced him to retire after two rotator cuff surgeries.[2]

Following his baseball career, Roberson became a financial adviser and later a manager with Morgan Stanley, where he worked for nearly a decade. He later joined UBS Financial Services as deputy branch manager of its Jacksonville complex.[2]
