MLB Rumors: Victor Robles to Sign Mariners Contract After Being Released by Nationals

Andrew PetersJun 3, 2024

The Seattle Mariners are center fielder Victor Robles after the 27-year-old was released from the Washington Nationals over the weekend, per the Seattle Times' Adam Jude.

ESPN's Alden González reported that the Mariners signed Robles to a major league deal and the right-handed hitter will start mostly against left-handed pitchers.

Robles, who has been with the Nationals since 2017, has appeared in just 14 games this season, getting three hits and two RBI in 25 at-bats.

According to Jude, Robles will be paid $2.65 million this season, but the Mariners will only have to pay $740,000 of that amount.

Last season, Robles had 32 hits and eight RBI on his way to a career-high .299 batting average, although he had just 107 at-bats across 36 games while dealing with a back injury. He has a .236 batting average for his career with 31 home runs and 156 RBI.

As a rookie in 2019, Robles collected a career-best 139 hits with 17 homers and 65 RBI on his way to a .255 batting average. He was a part of the Nationals' squad that won the franchise's only World Series against the Houston Astros.

Robles was once a top prospect for the Nationals, but injuries and underwhelming performances have left him with little to show for so far in his career. Now with a new team, Robles is looking to get back on track.
