Thu Sep 11 | 18:17 | Victor Robles Taking a Seat on Thursday |
Seattle Mariners outfielder Victor Robles is out of the starting lineup ahead of Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. This is now back-to-back games that Robles has been held out of the starting lineup. Before that, Robles was 5-for-17 across four games since returning from his suspension. Luke Raley will take over in right field and bat seventh versus right-hander Jose Soriano on Thursday. Robles hasn't done enough with the bat to warrant rostering in anything more than deep leagues. |

Sat Sep 6 | 16:54 | Victor Robles Returning to Lineup on Saturday |
The Seattle Mariners announced that they have reinstated outfielder Victor Robles after he served a seven-game suspension. He'll play right field and hit eighth on Saturday against Atlanta Braves right-hander Hurston Waldrep. Major League Baseball issued Robles a 10-game ban for throwing a bat toward an opposing pitcher during a minor-league rehab assignment last month, but the punishment was reduced after an appeal. After missing four and a half months with a dislocated shoulder, Robles returned Aug. 23 and has gone 3-for-13 with two RBI in four games. The 28-year-old was a bright spot for the Mariners in 2024 after he flamed out with the Washington Nationals. However, Robles has played in just 14 contests this season and slumped to a .214/.267/.298 line with five RBI, four runs scored, and four stolen bases in 60 plate appearances. |

Fri Aug 29 | 14:31 | Victor Robles' Suspension Reduced to Seven Games, Will be Out Friday |
After appealing his 10-game suspension, Seattle Mariners outfielder Victor Robles' suspension has been reduced to seven games, according to Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times. Robles will begin serving the suspension on Friday and will not be available for the series opener in Cleveland against the Guardians. Robles won't be able to return to the Mariners' lineup until Sept. 6. With the 28-year-old out for the next seven games, expect to see more of the left-handed-hitting Luke Raley in Seattle's starting lineup. Robles broke out for the M's after coming to Seattle, slashing .328/.393/.467 with four home runs, 26 RBI and 30 stolen bases in only 77 games played. However, he's looked more like the version he showed with the Nationals in his first eight MLB seasons in 2025, hitting .246 (14-for-57) with no homers, five RBI and only four steals in only 14 games. |

Sat Aug 23 | 17:08 | Victor Robles Reinstated, in Lineup on Saturday |
The Seattle Mariners have reinstated outfielder Victor Robles (shoulder) from the 60-day injured list and designated utility player Dylan Moore for assignment, according to Daniel Kramer of MLB.com. Robles is back after going on the IL on April 7 with a dislocated left shoulder. The 28-year-old is now facing a 10-game suspension in the majors after throwing a bat toward an opposing pitcher during a minor-league rehab game. However, because Robles is allowed to play while the suspension is under appeal, he's in the lineup on Saturday and hitting seventh against Athletics left-hander Jeffrey Springs. Robles combined to hit .307/.381/.433 with four homers, 28 RBI, 44 runs scored, and 34 stolen bases in 295 plate appearances between the Mariners and Washington Nationals in 2024. He got off to a .273/.283/.341 start over 46 trips to the plate this year before suffering his injury. With Moore out of the picture, Robles could be part of a platoon in right with Dominic Canzone (arm) and/or Luke Raley. There should be a ruling on his suspension in the coming days. |

Tue Aug 19 | 18:13 | Victor Robles Issued 10-Game Suspension |
Seattle Mariners outfielder Victor Robles (shoulder) was issued a 10-game suspension for his actions during a rehab game on Sunday. Robles threw his bat towards pitcher Joey Estes after getting hit by a pitch in the third inning. That resulted in Robles getting immediately ejected from the contest. The suspension must be served at the MLB level, which means it won't start until he returns from the injured list. Robles has been sidelined since early April due to a dislocated shoulder. It's unclear at the moment when Robles will be activated. He's not someone that needs to be rostered right now, especially with this suspension looming. |

Tue Aug 5 | 20:51 | Victor Robles Cleared for Rehab Assignment |
Seattle Mariners outfielder Victor Robles (shoulder) has been out since early April with a small fracture in the humeral head of his left shoulder. He is now scheduled to start a rehab assignment with Triple-A Tacoma on August 12. This puts the 28-year-old ahead of schedule for his expected return, and the Mariners are aiming for Robles to get 40-50 at-bats before being activated from the injured list. Dominic Canzone has been filling in for Robles in the outfield and looks to share playing time when Robles returns. Fantasy managers looking for speed could add Robles, as he swiped 34 bags last year and had three bases stolen in 10 games this year before his injury. |

Sat Aug 2 | 11:16 | Victor Robles Aiming to Return in September |
Seattle Mariners outfielder Victor Robles (shoulder) is targeting a return to the team in September. Robles has been throwing out to distances of 150 feet and hitting on the field this past week for the team. While he was said to feel around 80 percent healthy, the former Washington National aims to play again before the season ends. Robles has yet to slide or dive during pre-game workouts but remains positive in his desire to return. While the optimism remains, he is likely to have minimal fantasy impact, given how long he has been away and how little time remains in the season. |

Thu Jul 31 | 20:34 | Victor Robles Hits on the Field |
Seattle Mariners outfielder Victor Robles (shoulder) hit on the field on Wednesday before the team's game against the Athletics for the first time since suffering a small fracture in the humeral head of his shoulder injury on April 6. Robles was making loud contact and said he felt around "80 percent" as he works his way back from the 60-day injured list. He is also doing light defensive work and throwing at 150 feet, but he hasn't reached the point of diving or sliding. "I feel really good," Robles said. The Mariners have been targeting a September return for the 28-year-old, leaving him little time to make an impact in fantasy the rest of 2025. Because of how long he's been sidelined, he'll need a lengthier minor-league rehab assignment. With Luke Raley (back) now on the IL, the M's are rolling with a platoon in right field between Dominic Canzone and Dylan Moore. |

Thu Jul 31 | 08:44 | Victor Robles Remains Confident He Will Return This Season |
Seattle Mariners outfielder Victor Robles (shoulder) has been hitting in the cage for a few days, and he moved to hitting on the field on Wednesday for the first time. He is also throwing out to 150 feet, and the next step in his recovery will be sliding and diving. Robles has been sidelined since April 6, when he fractured and dislocated his shoulder by crashing into netting in San Francisco while making an exceptional catch. Last month, Mariners General Manager Justin Hollander said that Robles isn't expected back until September, but he could start a rehab assignment in the next few weeks and be ready to return early in the final month of the season if all continues to go according to plan. Robles joined the Mariners in the middle of last season and was a productive part of their outfield and lineup before the injury. |

Sat Jul 19 | 11:04 | Victor Robles Playing Catch |
Seattle Mariners outfielder Victor Robles (shoulder) was spotted playing catch in the outfield before his team's game against the Houston Astros on Friday. Robles was placed on the 60-day injured list in early April after dislocating his right shoulder. The initial timeline provided by the team indicated that Robles would be sidelined for "at least" 12 weeks, and more recent reporting suggests that he is not expected to return before September. The 28-year-old had an excellent 77-game stretch with Seattle in 2024, slashing .328/.393/.467 with four home runs and 30 stolen bases. Unfortunately, it appears that 2025 will likely be a lost season for Robles. If he is able return in September, he could be a valuable late-season pickup for fantasy managers in need of stolen bases. |

Mon Jul 7 | 14:03 | Victor Robles Continues Journey Back to the Field |
Seattle Mariners right fielder Victor Robles (shoulder) has entered the strength-building phase of his rehab as he works his way back from a left shoulder dislocation suffered on April 7. Robles began this stage in early June, with the program expected to last approximately six weeks before he resumes baseball activities. The 28-year-old has avoided setbacks, but his return timeline has shifted toward the end of the regular season due to the severity of the injury. He played in just 10 games before going down, slashing .273/.283/.341 with three stolen bases. Robles could be a sneaky speed boost for fantasy managers during the playoffs. Keep him in mind as a potential late-season waiver wire stash. |

Tue May 27 | 21:53 | Victor Robles Could Return in September |
Seattle Mariners outfielder Victor Robles (shoulder) is beginning the strengthening part of his rehab but probably won't be back until September, reports Daniel Kramer of MLB.com. His latest scan showed stability and good healing, but he won't be able to take part in baseball activities until July. It's a long road to recovery for Robles, who fractured his shoulder while making a catch on April 6. The positive news is that he avoided surgery and could still be part of a playoff push for Seattle down the stretch. |

Tue Apr 8 | 15:18 | Victor Robles Expected To Miss 12 Weeks With Fracture In Shoulder |
Seattle Mariners outfielder Victor Robles (shoulder) is expected to miss a minimum of 12 weeks after an MRI revealed that he not only suffered a dislocated shoulder, but also a small fracture in his left shoulder as well. The injury happened on Sunday while making a spectacular catch in foul territory. The 27-year-old was coming off a strong finish to the 2024 campaign with the Mariners, and had just started to heat up, collecting a hit in eight straight games, including three consecutive multi-hit efforts. Dominic Canzone was called up from Triple-A Tacoma to replace Robles. Canzone has just a .208 batting average and .265 on-base percentage through 126 major league games, but has managed to hit 14 home runs during that time. Still, fantasy managers may want to see how playing time shakes out before considering adding him to rosters, as it was Luke Raley who started in right field for the M's on Monday. |

Mon Apr 7 | 18:03 | Victor Robles Heading To Injured List |
MLB.com's Daniel Kramer reports that Seattle Mariners outfielder Victor Robles (shoulder) is heading to the 10-day injured list on Monday due to a left-shoulder injury that he suffered in Sunday's loss to the San Francisco Giants. Robles is undergoing an MRI exam to determine the severity of his shoulder injury, at which point we should have a better idea of how much time he might have to miss. The 27-year-old sold out to make a fantastic play in the ninth inning on Sunday, but he paid the price. Dominic Canzone is expected to be recalled from Triple-A Tacoma in a corresponding move, but the left-handed-hitting Luke Raley figures to benefit the most from extra playing time in right field with Robles on the shelf. After breaking out with the M's in 77 games in 2024, Robles was hitting .273 (12-for-44) with three doubles, three RBI and three steals in his first 10 games in 2024. |

Sun Apr 6 | 21:13 | Victor Robles Exits Early With Wrist Injury |
Seattle Mariners outfielder Victor Robles (wrist) made an incredible catch while colliding with the netting in the ninth inning of Sunday's 5-4 loss to the Giants but injured himself in the process. He immediately went down in pain and had to be carted off the field. There has been no official injury designation yet from the team, but he appeared to be holding his left wrist as he left the game. It's unfortunate news for the speedy outfielder, who put it all on the line to make one of the best catches of the season. He was batting .273 with three RBI, three runs, and three stolen bases so far in 2025. Expect updates from the Mariners in the coming days with more details about the severity of the injury. |

Mon Mar 24 | 16:55 | Victor Robles Returns To The Field On Monday |
Seattle Mariners outfielder Victor Robles (hand) got the start in right field and was batting leadoff for Monday's Cactus League game against the San Diego Padres. Robles is back in action to begin the week after he was pulled from Saturday's exhibition game early against the Chicago White Sox when he was hit by a pitch on the right hand. Thankfully, the 27-year-old avoided any broken bones and will be ready for Opening Day this Thursday against the division-rival Athletics. The Dominican outfielder came alive last year after being traded from the Washington Nationals to Seattle, as he slashed .328/.393/.467 with an .860 OPS, four home run, 26 RBI and 30 steals in 77 games for the M's. Fantasy managers shouldn't be banking on a repeat for Robles over a full season, especially since he has limited power, but his speed should play in at least deep-mixed leagues out of the leadoff spot in Seattle. |

Sun Mar 23 | 14:22 | Victor Robles' X-Rays Come Back Clean |
Seattle Mariners outfielder Victor Robles' (hand) X-rays were deemed negative. Though he is not in the lineup on Sunday, he's hitting in the cages, per Shannon Drayer of SeattleSports.com. Robles left Saturday's outing against the Chicago White Sox after getting plunked in the hand with a pitch and looked to be seriously hurting. Fortunately, it appears he can be considered day-to-day. The 27-year-old was a different player last season upon his arrival to Seattle, hitting an eye-popping .328 with 30 steals after the move. Robles is currently hovering around the top 200 picks off the board (~OF30) and projects to give fantasy managers the most considerable boost in the average and steals categories. |

Sat Mar 22 | 19:39 | Victor Robles Exits Early On Saturday |
Seattle Mariners outfielder Victor Robles (hand) was forced to exit early during Saturday's spring training contest. Robles appeared to be in significant pain after taking a pitch off his hand. He immediately exited the contest and is likely to undergo additional testing. Afterwards, Mariners manager Dan Wilson said he believes Robles has avoided a serious injury. Possibly, Robles misses a day or two, but will hopefully be ready in time for Opening Day. UPDATE: Robles was set to undergo an X-ray on his hand, but the team sounded optimistic that he will be fine. |

Fri Sep 27 2024 | 18:27 | Victor Robles Takes A Seat |
Seattle Mariners outfielder Victor Robles is out of the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Oakland Athletics. The Mariners don't have anything to play for anymore after being eliminated from the postseason contention That being said, Seattle has little incentive to play their star players. Mitch Haniger will take over in right field and bat sixth against left-hander JP Sears. Haniger has been bad at the plate this season, but even worse against left-handed pitching, so he can be avoided in all fantasy formats on Friday. |

Thu Sep 19 2024 | 15:02 | Victor Robles Scratched From Thursday's Lineup |
Seattle Mariners outfielder Victor Robles (hand) has been scratched from the starting lineup on Thursday against the New York Yankees at T-Mobile Park. Robles suffered a bruised right hand in Tuesday's contest and didn't play on Wednesday as a result. It appears the 27-year-old needs at least one more day to heal up before returning to the field. In his absence, Dylan Moore will draw into the lineup at second base and will hit eighth against Yankees right-hander Clarke Schmidt. Jorge Polanco is serving as the designated hitter and is batting sixth for the M's. Moore has a homer and two RBI in two career at-bats against Schmidt, while Polanco has gone hitless in his only at-bat against Schmidt. Robles should be fine to play this weekend on the road in Texas against the division-rival Rangers. He's been excellent since joining Seattle, hitting .333 (66-for-198) with four homers, 20 RBI and 25 steals in 69 games. |
