| May 27 2025 | Mariners general manager Justin Hollander said Tuesday that Robles (shoulder) may not return until September, Tim Booth of the Seattle Times reports. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles had a scan on his shoulder that revealed it is healing properly. His timeline will entail six weeks of rest, six weeks of strengthening and the possibility of resuming baseball activities in July. While the righty will start strengthening his shoulder soon, his expected return to the major league roster may not come until September. |
|
| Apr 8 2025 | Robles was diagnosed with a small fracture in the humeral head of his left shoulder after an MRI on Tuesday and is expected to be sidelined at least 12 weeks, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The injury was caused by the shoulder dislocation that he suffered while making a leaping catch into the wall/netting Sunday against the Giants. It appears Robles won't require surgery, but the injury is expected to need six weeks to heal before he can begin a six-week rehab program. Dominic Canzone was added to the big-league roster when Robles was placed on the injured list, but it was Luke Raley that received the start in right field Monday versus Houston. |
|
| Apr 7 2025 | Robles was placed on the 10-day injured list Monday due to a dislocated left shoulder. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles suffered a left shoulder injury while making an outstanding catch in the bottom of the ninth inning of Sunday's 5-4 loss to the Giants, and the 27-year-old outfielder is undergoing an MRI on Monday to determine the severity of the injury. Dominic Canzone was recalled from Triple-A Tacoma in a corresponding move. |
|
| Apr 6 2025 | Robles (shoulder) is likely going to be placed on the injured list with a left shoulder injury, Jon Morosi of MLB Network reports. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles suffered a left arm injury while making an acrobatic catch in the bottom of the ninth inning of Sunday's 5-4 loss to the Giants, and it's now understood to be a shoulder injury. The severity of the injury remains unknown, but if Robles does end up on the IL, Dominic Canzone is a candidate to be promoted from Triple-A Tacoma and replace him on Seattle's 26-man roster. |
|
| Apr 2 2025 | Robles went 1-for-4 with a two-run double in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Tigers. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles got the Mariners on the board in the second inning with a double to center that brought J.P. Crawford and Dylan Moore across home plate. It was Robles' first RBIs since Opening Day against the Athletics, and the 27-year-old is on a five-game hit streak in which he's gone 6-for-21 with three doubles and two RBI. |
|
| Mar 24 2025 | Robles (hand) will start in right field and bat leadoff in Monday's Cactus League game against the Padres. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles was pulled from Saturday's game against the White Sox after being struck on the right hand by a pitch, but he avoided any broken bones. After checking out fine while taking live batting practice Sunday, the swelling and soreness in Robles' hand has apparently subsided enough to the point that the 27-year-old has been cleared to play in the Mariners' spring finale. Assuming he comes out of Monday's contest no worse for the wear, Robles should be ready to handle leadoff duties for Seattle in Thursday's season opener versus the Athletics. |
|
| Mar 23 2025 | Robles had X-rays on his right hand come back negative, and he will hit in a batting cage Sunday, Shannon Drayer of SeattleSports.com reports. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The 27-year-old was hit by a pitch during Saturday's spring game but appears to have avoided a significant injury. Assuming Robles doesn't experience any additional complications, it appears he'll be ready to go for the season opener Thursday versus the A's. |
|
| Mar 22 2025 | Mariners manager Dan Wilson "sounded optimistic" that Robles would be OK after the outfielder was hit by a pitch on his right hand and forced to exit Saturday's Cactus League game against the White Sox, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports. However, Robles will still need to undergo an X-ray and possibly other tests. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles appeared to be in considerable pain after taking a slider to the wrist in his fourth plate appearance Saturday. This initial word is positive, but Robles is not out of the woods yet. He is looking to build on his excellent run with Seattle last season during which he slashed .328/.393/.467 with four homers and 30 steals in just 77 games. |
|
| Mar 16 2025 | Robles went 1-for-11 in four Cactus League games in February, but he's hitting .250 with one home run, two doubles and one stolen base over 24 at-bats since the start of March. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles is slated to serve as a table setter in Seattle's lineup in 2025, as he perhaps stands out as the most likely candidate to work as the leadoff hitter to begin the campaign. After the former top prospect was discarded by the Nationals in 2024, Robles went on to slash an impressive .328/.393/.467 with four homers, 20 doubles, 30 stolen bases and 41 runs scored across 262 plate appearances with the Mariners. Even if Robles experiences some regression as a hitter this year, the veteran outfielder's glove and speed should keep him in the lineup regularly. |
|
| Sep 27 2024 | Robles is absent from Friday's lineup against Oakland, Shannon Drayer of SeattleSports.com reports. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles will rest for the first game of the series after going 3-for-13 with two RBI and five runs scored during the Mariners' previous series against the Astros. Mitch Haniger will start in right field and bat sixth against Athletics southpaw JP Sears. |
|
| Sep 24 2024 | Robles went 2-for-4 with a double, a walk and two runs in a win over the Astros on Monday. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: In what's become a near-daily occurrence, Robles served as a highly effective table-setting presence atop the order, posting his ninth multi-hit effort of September. The veteran early-summer addition has been nothing short of spectacular for the Mariners, posting a .336/.403/.474 slash line over his 75 games in a Seattle uniform and serving as a quintessential leadoff man with his plate discipline (16.9 percent strikeout rate) and speed (28-for-29 in stolen bases). |
|
| Sep 22 2024 | Robles went 1-for-5 with two RBI, a stolen base and a run scored in Sunday's 6-5 loss to the Rangers. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles delivered a two-run single in the sixth inning and stole a base for the third straight game. He was hampered by a hand injury earlier in the week, but he's gone 3-for-9 with three RBI over his last games in which he's logged an at-bat. The speedy outfielder is up to 32 steals on 34 attempts this year while adding four home runs, 25 RBI, 38 runs scored and a .310/.385/.431 slash line over 86 games between the Mariners and the Nationals. |
|
| Sep 21 2024 | Robles isn't in the Mariners' lineup Saturday against Texas. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles went 2-for-4 with an RBI, two runs scored and a stolen base during Friday's win, and he'll get a chance to rest Saturday against Dane Dunning and the Rangers. Randy Arozarena, Julio Rodriguez and Luke Raley will form the Mariners' outfield trio while Robles sits. |
|
| Sep 20 2024 | Robles (hand) is starting in right field and batting in the leadoff spot for Friday's game against Texas. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles was set to return from a two-game absence Thursday against the Yankees due to a right hand contusion, but he was a late scratch. He'll rejoin the starting lineup for the series opener and face Rangers right-hander Jacob deGrom. |
|
| Sep 19 2024 | Robles (hand) was scratched from Thursday's lineup against the Yankees. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles had been set to return to action in the designated hitter slot after missing Wednesday's game with a bruised right hand, but evidently he's still feeling some discomfort. Jorge Polanco will move into the DH spot and Dylan Moore will enter the lineup at second base. |
|
| Sep 18 2024 | Robles (hand) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Yankees. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles made an early exit from Tuesday's game due to a bruised right hand, and though X-rays revealed no structural damage, lingering soreness will prevent him from starting Wednesday. While Robles sits, Randy Arozarena, Julio Rodriguez and Mitch Haniger will make up Seattle's outfield trio. |
|
| Sep 17 2024 | Robles was removed from Tuesday's game against the Yankees with a right hand contusion. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles was hit by a pitch during his lone plate appearance in the first inning and was caught trying to steal home plate before being lifted for a pinch hitter in the third frame. Initial X-rays on his hand came back negative, so an extended absence likely won't be necessary. |
|
| Sep 15 2024 | Robles (undisclosed) exited Sunday's contest against the Rangers in the seventh inning, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles picked up a leg injury in the fourth inning while trying to beat out a groundout, ultimately staying in the game until the seventh frame. The outfielder notched his third hit of the day, an RBI-single, before exiting the contest. Robles will finish Sunday 3-for-4 with the RBI and more information on his status will likely be provided in the near future. |
|
| Sep 13 2024 | Robles went 1-for-4 with a stolen base and a run scored in Friday's 5-4 win over the Rangers. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles is batting .438 (14-for-32) over 11 games in September, and he's added six steals this month. His offense has been boom or bust in that span -- this was the first game in September where Robles had exactly one hit, to go with five multi-hit efforts that have fueled his recent success. The outfielder is up to a .299/.380/.421 slash line with 27 steals, four home runs, 21 RBI and 33 runs scored over 79 contests between the Mariners and the Nationals this season. |
|
| Sep 11 2024 | Robles went 3-for-4 with a double, a stolen base and a walk in a loss to the Padres on Tuesday. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles was making his return from a two-game absence due to elbow discomfort, and the veteran outfielder picked up right where he left off in terms of his hot hitting. Robles is now batting a blistering .426 over his last 17 games, a stretch in which he has seven extra-base hits, 11 RBI and seven steals, along with a modest 14.1 percent strikeout rate. The 27-year-old's bat has been the Mariners' most consistent, even though he didn't arrive in Seattle until June 4 after placed on unconditional release waivers by the Nationals. |
|
| Sep 10 2024 | Robles (elbow) is starting in right field as the leadoff hitter Tuesday versus the Padres. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles had a pitch hit his elbow in Friday's game against the Cardinals, which resulted in him being removed three innings later. It also resulted in him missing the next two games Saturday and Sunday. The outfielder was able to get an extra day of rest with the Mariners having Monday off. |
|
| Sep 8 2024 | Robles (elbow) was scratched from the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles was initially set to start in right field but is still feeling the effects of being hit by a pitch in the elbow Friday, so he'll instead be held out of the lineup for a second straight game. The 27-year-old will also have Monday's team off day to aid in his recovery ahead of Tuesday's series opener versus the Padres. |
|
| Sep 7 2024 | Robles (elbow) is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Cardinals. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles was hit in the elbow by a pitch Friday but wasn't removed from the game until three innings later. He'll get the night off Saturday as Mitch Haniger fills right field. |
|
| Sep 6 2024 | Robles exited Friday's game against the Cardinals after being hit in the elbow by a pitch, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles was hit in the elbow pad and remained in the game for three additional innings before being pulled. Manager Dan Wilson spoke after the game and said Robles should be fine, and the expectation is that he will be in the lineup Saturday. |
|
| Sep 5 2024 | Robles went 3-for-4 with a two-run double, an RBI single, another two-bagger, a walk and three runs in a win over the Athletics on Wednesday. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The bottom four hitters in the Mariners' order all mustered multi-hit efforts, with Robles tying No. 8 batter Luis Urias for the most robust of those tallies on the night. The highly productive performance included the fifth multi-hit performance for Robles in his last eight games, a span in which he also boasts eight RBI and seven runs. The veteran outfielder has been utilized at various spots in the order, and his impressive .282 average and .759 OPS allows him to fit anywhere in the lineup while affording him an everyday role as well. |
|
| Sep 3 2024 | Robles went 2-for-4 with a double, a stolen base and a run in a loss to the Athletics on Monday. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles generated the only multi-hit effort of the contest for Seattle, accomplishing the feat for the fourth time in the last six games overall. The late-August/early-September surge has boosted Robles' season average 19 points to .299, and with current primary leadoff hitter J.P. Crawford now sitting on a .195/.301/.331 slash line for the season, the former could conceivably retake the top spot in the order if both hitters' trajectories remain the same. |
|
| Aug 30 2024 | Robles went 3-for-5 with two RBI and a stolen base in Friday's 9-5 win over the Angels. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles has six multi-hit efforts over his last eight games, and he's added four steals and seven RBI in that span. The outfielder delivered a pair of RBI singles in Friday's win. He's batting .303 as a Mariner this season, and he's managed a .278/.345/.400 slash line with four home runs, 17 RBI, 21 steals, 50 runs scored and 10 doubles through 68 contests between Seattle and Washington this season. |
|
| Aug 29 2024 | Robles went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run in a win over the Rays on Wednesday. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles was booted from his usual leadoff spot to the bottom of the order Wednesday due to the return of J.P. Crawford from the IL, but the former shrugged off the lineup slotting by generating his fourth homer of the season and fifth multi-hit effort since Aug. 17. Robles has been quite the find for the Mariners since signing in early June, producing a .293 average, .790 OPS, 14 extra-base hits, 13 RBI, 16 steals and 19 runs across 53 games while filling in at multiple outfield spots. |
|
| Aug 28 2024 | Robles went 2-for-4 with two steals and a run scored in Tuesday's loss to the Rays. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles notched his fourth multi-hit effort over his last six games. He also swiped multiple bases for the first time since July 20 and reached 20 steals for the first time since he had 28 in 2019. Despite a down month at the plate, Robles is still slashing .262/.333/.372 with three homers, 13 RBI, 21 runs and a 14:40 BB:K in 195 plate appearances this season. |
|
| Aug 27 2024 | Robles (finger) will start in right field and bat leadoff Tuesday against the Rays. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles had to sit out Seattle's last two games after taking a pitch off his finger in Saturday's contest, but the lingering pain seems to have subsided Tuesday. The 27-year-old outfielder is slashing .191/.247/.294 with six RBI across 73 plate appearances since the beginning of August. |
|
| Aug 26 2024 | Robles (finger) is not in the starting lineup for Monday's game against Tampa Bay. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles will sit for a second straight day due to a bruised finger he sustained in Saturday's 4-3 loss to San Francisco after being hit by a pitch. Dominic Canzone will start in right field Monday and bat eighth against Rays right-hander Ryan Pepiot. |
|
| Aug 25 2024 | Robles (finger) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Giants. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The 27-year-old was removed from Saturday's contest after being hit by a pitch on the finger and will sit out at least one game as a result of the injury. Robles was diagnosed with a bruised right index finger after undergoing X-rays, so he may be able to rejoin the starting nine within the next couple days. Luke Raley will move to center field Sunday while Justin Turner starts at first base. |
|
| Aug 24 2024 | X-rays on Robles' right hand came back negative Saturday, and he's been diagnosed with a right index finger contusion. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles was removed from Saturday's game against San Francisco after being hit in the hand by a pitch while attempting to lay down a bunt during the first inning. While he appeared to be in plenty of pain and was immediately removed, Robles didn't sustain any structural damage to his hand. He should be considered day-to-day moving forward. |
|
| Aug 23 2024 | Robles (hip) is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Giants, Shannon Drayer of SeattleSports.com reports. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles will be held out for a second straight game as he continues to battle through a hip issue. Julio Rodriguez will man center field Friday and bat second against Giants right-hander Hayden Birdsong. |
|
| Aug 21 2024 | Robles isn't in the Mariners' lineup for Wednesday's game against the Dodgers due to a hip issue, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The Mariners haven't offered any information regarding the nature of Robles' injury or how long they expect the outfielder to be sidelined, though he'll have the benefit of an additional day off Thursday before Seattle's next series against the Giants. Luke Raley will start in center field Wednesday while Justin Turner covers first base. |
|
| Aug 18 2024 | Robles went 2-for-5 with an RBI single and a stolen base in a loss to the Pirates on Saturday. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles contributed his first multi-hit effort since Aug. 2 while also swiping his fourth base in the last eight games. The veteran outfielder is still trying to claw out of his August doldrums, however, as he's carrying a .161 average and .467 OPS across 60 plate appearances this month even when factoring in Saturday's production. |
|
| Aug 16 2024 | Robles went 1-for-4 with a double and a stolen base in a loss to the Tigers on Thursday. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles provided the Mariners' only extra-base hit of the day out of the leadoff spot and added his 17th stolen base of the campaign when he swiped third following the fifth-inning two-bagger. Despite Thursday's production, it's been a quiet month for Robles' once-hot bat, as he's carrying a .116 batting average and .354 OPS across his last 11 games. |
|
| Aug 12 2024 | The Mariners signed Robles to a two-year, $9.75 million contract extension Monday, Jorge Castillo of ESPN.com reports. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The deal also contains a $9 million club option for 2027 and features $2 million in bonuses and escalators. Robles was released by the Nationals in June but quickly caught on with the Mariners and has resurrected his career, slashing .303/.372/.450 with three home runs and 12 stolen bases in 42 games. He had been set to reach free agency this offseason but will remain in Seattle for a while longer. |
|
| Aug 11 2024 | Robles went 1-for-5 with a stolen base and a run scored in Saturday's win over the Mets. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The outfielder led off the bottom of the first with a double before stealing third and then coming around to score on a two-bagger from Randy Arozarena, putting the Mariners up 1-0. Robles has now scored a run and recorded a steal in back-to-back games, while the double marked his second extra-base hit so far this month. Robles is batting just .167 (5-for-30) in August with one RBI and four runs scored. |
|
| Aug 9 2024 | Robles went 0-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Friday's 6-0 win over the Mets. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles was hitless for the fourth time in six games, but he was able to draw his first walk since July 26 and notch a steal. The outfielder had seven multi-hit efforts over the first 12 games following the All-Star break, but he's cooled off lately and could lose his leadoff spot since he's not getting on base well lately. For the season, Robles has a .272/.357/.392 slash line with three home runs, 15 steals, eight RBI and 16 runs scored over 146 plate appearances between the Mariners and the Nationals. |
|
| Aug 2 2024 | Robles went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a stolen base and an additional run scored in Friday's 10-2 win over the Phillies. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles returned from a one-game absence due to a hip issue, and he produced his fourth multi-hit effort in his last five games. He also logged his eight steal in 13 contests, which is likely a good sign the hip injury is behind him, though he did previously play through it. The outfielder is up to three homers, 14 thefts, eight RBI, 15 runs scored and a .308/.387/.452 slash line across 122 plate appearances in 2024. |
|
| Jul 31 2024 | Robles (hip) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Red Sox. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles will get his first day off since July 11 while he manages a hip injury, which resulted in his early exit from Tuesday's 10-6 win. Manager Scott Servais hasn't suggested that the hip issue is anything that will keep Robles out beyond Wednesday's contest, and the 27-year-old will benefit from the Mariners having an off day Thursday before the club returns to action Friday versus the Phillies. Josh Rojas will draw the leadoff assignment Wednesday after Robles had set the table for Seattle in each of the previous five contests. |
|
| Jul 30 2024 | Robles exited Tuesday's game against the Red Sox due to a hip injury, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles had gone 2-for-5 with three runs scored and a steal before his hip forced him out of the game in the eighth inning. Manager Scott Servais said after the game that the outfielder's hip has been giving him problems for a while, and he'll most likely sit down for Wednesday's series finale in order to recover. Cade Marlowe would likely be the choice to start in center field if Robles is out. |
|
| Jul 27 2024 | Robles went 3-for-6 with one RBI in Saturday's 6-3 win over the White Sox. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: This was Robles' second game in a row in the leadoff spot, and he did a decent job of setting the table. The Mariners didn't knock him in but still put up 12 hits as a team, including three home runs. Robles is batting .300 (12-for-30) over eight games since the All-Star break and finally looks to have a larger role due to the absence of Julio Rodriguez (ankle). Robles is slashing .302/.396/.430 with two home runs, seven RBI, nine runs scored and 12 stolen bases over 104 plate appearances this season. |
|
| Jul 25 2024 | Robles went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in a loss to the Angels on Wednesday. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles reached safely for the eighth straight game, continuing to serve as one of the few consistent bats in a struggling and now injury-hampered Mariners lineup. The veteran outfielder is also evolving into a consistently effective threat on the basepaths, with Wednesday's steal his sixth in the last seven contests. Robles' blistering bat since joining Seattle was already starting to carve him out additional playing time, but injuries to Dominic Canzone (thigh) and Julio Rodriguez (ankle) have essentially locked Robles into an everyday role for the foreseeable future. |
|
| Jul 22 2024 | Robles went 2-for-4 with a double and a stolen base in a win over the Astros on Sunday. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The veteran outfielder worked out of the No. 2 spot in the lineup for the second consecutive game and continued validating his bump up the order with his third multi-hit effort in the last five games. Robles also recorded his fifth stolen base in the last four contests after his fifth-inning infield single, and with a .390 average and 1.053 OPS across 49 plate appearances since joining the offensively inconsistent Mariners, his hot bat looks like it will be a mainstay in the lineup for the foreseeable future. |
|
| Jul 21 2024 | Robles went 1-for-3 with a walk, two stolen bases and a run in an loss to the Astros on Saturday. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles drew another start in right field and eventually shifted over to left while notably working out of the No. 2 spot in the order for the first time. The hot-hitting veteran reached double digits in stolen bases for the third time in his career with his pair of swipes, his second multi-steal tally in the last three games. Robles is surging at the plate over the last eight games as well, hitting .444 (8-for-18) with three extra-base hits, two RBI, three walks, five total steals, a hit-by-pitch and four runs in that span. It remains to be seen if Saturday's lineup slotting is an outlier or is replicated in coming days, but Robles' run-scoring opportunities would figure to rise if the latter proves true. |
|
| Jul 20 2024 | Robles went 2-for-3 in a loss to the Astros on Friday. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles drew the start in right field with Dominic Canzone (thigh) starting the second half of the season on the IL, and the veteran contributed the only multi-hit effort on a quiet night for Mariners' bats. Robles has proven a steady contributor when given the opportunity since his arrival to Seattle, as he now boasts a stellar .382 average and 1.050 OPS with five extra-base hits (out of 13 total) in 39 plate appearances. With Canzone still some time away from returning, Robles could continue earning starts at the expense of the struggling Mitch Haniger if Robles keeps producing at the plate. |
|
| Jul 15 2024 | Robles went 0-for-2 with a walk, two stolen bases and a run scored in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Angels. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles reached via a walk in the seventh and wound up with two stolen bases before coming around to score in the inning. He already has eight steals in 36 games this season after totaling eight in 36 games during an injury-plagued 2023 campaign. Robles has strung together three consecutive starts after Dominic Canzone (adductor) was placed on the injured list Wednesday and seems to be the primary replacement in the outfield for Canzone while he's sidelined. |
|
| Jul 14 2024 | Robles will start in right field and bat seventh in Sunday's game against the Angels. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: After generating three hits in Saturday's 2-1 loss, Robles will receive his third consecutive start, with the two last two coming against right-handed pitching. The Mariners could end up leaning on Robles as the primary replacement in the outfield for Dominic Canzone (adductor), who was placed on the injured list Wednesday. |
|
| Jul 13 2024 | Robles went 3-for-4 with a double in Saturday's 2-1 loss to the Angels. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles had a good game from the No. 9 spot, but the Mariners 4-8 hitters combined to go 0-for-16 with three walks, giving the outfielder little chance to make his hits count. It was his first multi-hit effort since June 14, though Robles has mostly been utilized as a bench bat in his time with the Mariners. He's slashing .259/.359/.389 with one home run, five RBI, six runs scored and six stolen bases over 67 plate appearances between the Nationals and the Mariners this season. |
|
| Jul 10 2024 | Robles entered Tuesday's win over the Padres as a defensive replacement for Dominic Canzone (groin) in the bottom of the fifth inning and went 1-for-2 with an RBI double. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles initially slotted into Canzone's right field spot before shifting to center in the bottom of the eighth. The veteran doubled home Cal Raleigh in the ninth inning for the final run of the night as well, and he could be in line for some spot starts if Canzone needs some downtime due to his injury. |
|
| Jul 8 2024 | Robles started in center field for Julio Rodriguez (quadriceps) in Sunday's extra-inning loss to the Blue Jays and went 1-for-1 with a solo home run, a stolen base, a walk and an additional run. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: It was an eventful spot start for Robles, who slugged his first home run of the season via a 424-foot shoot to left field in the third inning for the first run of the afternoon. The veteran outfielder then stole third base in the seventh following an inning-opening walk, but he was stranded by a Luke Raley strikeout that ended the frame. Rodriguez did pinch hit for Robles in the eighth inning Sunday after an MRI on his quadriceps came back clean, so the star outfielder could be ready to relegate Robles back to the bench in Tuesday's series opener against the Padres following Monday's team off day. |
|
| Jun 22 2024 | Robles went 1-for-3 with a stolen base in Friday's 3-2 extra-inning loss to the Marlins. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Getting the start in left field and batting eighth, Robles swiped his fifth bag of the season, but his first since joining the Mariners in early June. The 27-year-old has looked good so far in his short-side platoon role with Seattle, batting .353 (6-for-17) with two doubles. |
|
| Jun 15 2024 | Robles started in left field during the Mariners' win over the Rangers on Friday and went 2-for-2 before being lifted for pinch hitter Luke Raley in the bottom of the sixth inning. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles was in the starting lineup on consecutive nights for the second time since joining the Mariners on June 4. He was able to contribute the first multi-hit effort of his brief Seattle tenure, albeit with one of those knocks being a controversial bunt single where Robles may have run inside the base line. The veteran has shown some encouraging signs of life at the plate since donning his new uniform, going 4-for-11 with a pair of doubles, a hit-by-pitch, an RBI and a run across seven games overall. |
|
| Jun 8 2024 | Robles went 1-for-3 with an RBI double and a run in a loss to the Royals on Friday. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The recent addition played a part in the Mariners' seven-run first inning with his first hit as a member of the team, knocking in Mitch Haniger with a double. Robles has appeared in each of the last three games after sitting out Tuesday's series opener against the Athletics following his signing earlier in the day, and Friday marked his second straight start in left field. |

| Jun 4 2024 | Robles signed a major-league contract with the Mariners on Tuesday and was added to the team's active roster. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Robles and Seattle came to terms on a deal just days after the veteran outfielder was waived by Washington. He slashed .120/.281/.120 in 33 plate appearances with the Nationals and figures to serve as the primary backup to Julio Rodriguez in center field while mixing in at the other outfield positions against RHP. |
|
| Jun 3 2024 | The Mariners are nearing a major-league contract with Robles, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports. | ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The deal is expected to be finalized ahead of Tuesday's series opener in Oakland, with Robles taking the 26-man active roster spot of outfielder Jonatan Clase, who was optioned to Triple-A Tacoma on Monday. The Nationals released Robles over the weekend after he went just 3-for-25 at the plate this season. The 27-year-old had a promising rookie season back in 2019, but he's managed an underwhelming .609 OPS since the start of the 2020 campaign while also dealing with numerous injuries. Robles is an odd fit in Seattle since his center-field defense is his best asset, and the Mariners already have Julio Rodriguez at that spot in the outfield. Robles could see some starts at the corner-outfield spots against left-handed pitching. |

|
| Jul 22 2018 | Robles (elbow) transferred his rehab assignment to short-season Auburn on Saturday and went 1-for-4 in the affiliate's 4-0 win over State College. | Robles has appeared in 13 rehab games in a total, batting .343 with six stolen bases in those contests. He played all nine innings in center field Saturday and should soon be ready to test himself against higher-level competition before settling back into an everyday role for Triple-A Syracuse. A return to the big club this season isn't out of the question for the 21-year-old, though that seems most likely to happen when rosters expand in September. |
|
| Jul 7 2018 | Robles (elbow) began a minor-league rehab assignment with the rookie-level GCL Braves on Saturday, Byron Kerr of MASN Nationals reports. | Robles has been sidelined since mid-April after hyperextending his left elbow on a dive in the field. The Nationals' top prospect could return to Triple-A Syracuse within a couple weeks if he avoids any setbacks, but the organization is likely to remain cautious to avoid rushing him back. |
|
| Jun 26 2018 | Robles (elbow) appears to be well ahead of schedule in his recovery from a hyperextended elbow, posting videos to his Instagram account of him hitting in a batting cage without any apparent issues, Chelsea Janes of The Washington Post reports. | Hitting in a batting cage is still a long way from game action, but given that some initial timetables for Robles' rehab didn't had him back in action until Sept. 1, this definitely qualifies as good news. The Nats have no reason to rush Robles given their outfield depth at the major-league level, but if he continues to make good progress, the 20-year-old could be back in the lineup at Triple-A Syracuse soon after the big-league All-Star break. |
|
| Apr 16 2018 | Robles (elbow) won't need surgery on his left elbow after further evaluation Monday, Dan Kolko of MASN Sports reports. | After waiting for the swelling to cease, Washington's medical staff determined Robles won't require season-ending surgery. This is good news for the Nationals, although he'll likely miss at least some time as he goes through rehab. There's no timetable for his return just yet, but he figures to be back at some point during the 2018 season. |
|
| Apr 10 2018 | Robles has been diagnosed with a hyperextended left elbow and will be reevaluated Monday, Mark Zuckerman of MASN Sports reports. | The Nationals will wait for the swelling in Robles' injured elbow to go down before taking another look. Robles suffered the injury Monday on a dive for a flyball at Triple-A Syracuse, but early signs are that he avoided major damage to his elbow. Once he goes in for re-examination, there should be a firmer timetable for Robles' return. |
|
| Apr 9 2018 | Robles (elbow) will head to Washington DC on Tuesday for further evaluation after x-rays came back negative, Jorge Castillo of The Washington Post reports. | Robles exited Monday's game early after diving for a fly ball, but he received good news when x-rays on his left elbow came back negative. More news on his status should be forthcoming after he undergoes further testing Tuesday. Robles is currently listed as Washington's No. 1 minor-league prospect. |
|
| Apr 9 2018 | Robles was removed from Monday's game with Triple-A Syracuse due to an apparent injury, Chelsea Janes of The Washington Post reports. | The top prospect reportedly came off the field with his left arm hanging limply on his side after he dove for a ball and landed awkwardly. No word has come forth as to the exact nature and severity of the issue, but things should clear up once he's evaluated by team doctors. Consider him day-to-day for the time being. |
|
| Mar 20 2018 | Robles was optioned to Triple-A Syracuse on Tuesday, Mark Zuckerman of MASN Sports reports. | General manager Mike Rizzo commented that Robles would only stay in the majors if he could play in a starting role. With Adam Eaton, Michael Taylor and Bryce Harper currently locked into the starting outfield, the Nationals will stay true to their word and send the stud prospect back to the minors. Robles hasn't played a single inning at Triple-A yet, but he batted .324 with three homers and 11 stolen bases in 37 games with Double-A Harrisburg last season. A strong start with Syracuse could help him push for big-league playing time soon. |
|
| Mar 15 2018 | General manager Mike Rizzo reported Thursday that the Nationals would not consider placing Robles on the Opening Day roster in a bench role, Chelsea Janes of The Washington Post reports. | Rizzo's comments aren't overly surprising, as it's fair to assume that the Nationals would like to see their top prospect receive consistent at-bats during the upcoming campaign. That said, the possibility remains that Robles could occupy a starting outfield spot to begin the season if either Adam Eaton (knee) or Michael Taylor (side) are forced to begin the year on the disabled list. But based on the general manager's comments, if both Eaton and Taylor are active on Opening Day, it appears that Robles is destined to begin the 2018 season in the minor leagues until an everyday opening in the majors presents itself. |
|
| Mar 6 2018 | Robles started in center field Monday in place of Michael Taylor (side). He is hitting .250 with one home run, one stolen base and five strikeouts in 24 at-bats this spring. | Taylor could be dealing with an oblique strain, but the team hasn't shared an official prognosis yet. He missed a month in 2017 with an oblique strain, so it's possible he would need to open the year on the DL if this ends up being the worst-case scenario. Adam Eaton (knee) is also not going to be playing in spring training games anytime soon, Chelsea Janes of the Washington Post reports. The narrative with Robles has been that he would not get a promotion to the majors this season unless it was to play every day. It appears that Taylor and Eaton could potentially open the year on the DL, and if that happens, Robles could make the big-league club out of spring training. If that happens, it's possible he struggles and gets sent down to Triple-A when someone comes off the DL, but it would also be possible for him to steal Taylor's job if he produces. There is a lot of speculation involved here, but suffice it to say that the injuries to Taylor and Eaton have increased Robles' chances of making the Opening Day roster. |
|
| Nov 28 2017 | The Nationals plan to assign Robles to Triple-A Syracuse for the start of the 2018 season, the Washington Post reports. | He will take part in big-league camp, and will undoubtedly impress, especially in the outfield. However, the Nationals have three very capable major-league outfielders in Bryce Harper, Adam Eaton and Michael Taylor, who all figure to enter the year ahead of the toolsy prospect on the organizational depth chart. The Nationals would also benefit from holding Robles down for a little over a month in order to gain an extra year of control. These things typically have a way of working themselves out, and Robles is too talented to spend the majority of the year in the minors. He projects as a gold-glove caliber center fielder with the speed to steal 30-plus bases, the hit tool to eventually hit .280 or .290, and developing power that could eventually result in 20-plus home runs. |
|
| Nov 3 2017 | Robles was removed from Friday's Arizona Fall League game due to "non-medical reasons," Jonathan Mayo of MLB.com reports. | Robles had a plate appearance in the top of the first inning and played the field during the bottom of the frame, but was not seen after that. At this point in time, there's only speculation for why Robles exited the contest, but an update will likely arise regarding his status within the next couple days. |
|
| Oct 6 2017 | Robles is on the active roster for the NLDS against Chicago, The Washington Post's Chelsea Janes reports. | Robles will serve as depth in the outfield as manager Dusty Baker elected to carry six outfielders for the series. During 13 major-league games, the 20-year-old has gone 6-for-24 (.250 average) with three extra-base hits and four RBI. |
|
| Sep 11 2017 | Robles went 1-for-2 with a double and an RBI in Sunday's win over the Phillies. | Making his first big-league start, the Nats' No. 1 fantasy prospect also collected his first hit and first RBI in the majors. The 20-year-old may pick up some additional starts down the stretch now that the club has clinched the NL East crown, but Robles won't be a regular in the lineup until at least some time next season. |
|
| Sep 10 2017 | Robles is starting in center field and hitting fifth Sunday against the Phillies. | Washington's top prospect will make his first-ever start in the Show on Sunday as he's starting in place of Michael Taylor in center field. Although the Nationals and fantasy owners alike are eager to see how Robles will perform in the majors, it's unclear how ofter he'll be used in the starting lineup for the remainder of the season. The 20-year-old played 37 games at Double-A Harrisburg before getting called up. Over said games he hit .324/.394/.489. |
|
| Sep 7 2017 | Robles will be recalled from Double-A Harrisburg on Thursday, Jeff Passan of Yahoo Sports reports. | Robles is one of the top prospects in all of baseball, and he'll join the big club after beginning the season with High-A Potomoc. The 20-year-old hasn't seen any action above Double-A, but he compiled a healthy .300/.382/.493 line with 10 homers and 27 stolen bases in 114 games between Double-A and High-A this season. It's unclear how often he'll play down the stretch, but with Bryce Harper (knee) still sidelined, the electric prospect could see occasional playing time over Howie Kendrick or Jayson Werth in Washington's outfield. Robles is a center fielder by trade, but has a cannon of an arm, and profiles as a plus defender in all three outfield spots. He should also serve as a high-quality pinch running option. |
|
| Sep 7 2017 | Robles had his contract purchased from Double-A Harrisburg on Thursday, Chelsea Janes of The Washington Post reports. | As expected, the Nationals' top prospect will join the big club after slashing .300/.382/.493 with 10 homers and 27 stolen bases in 114 games between Harrisburg and High-A Potomac. It's unclear how much playing time Robles will see down the stretch, but with Washington's outfield somewhat banged up, it wouldn't be too surprising to see him collect a few starts. At the very least, the young stud will serve as a high-quality pinch running option. |
