Seattle Mariners outfielder Víctor Robles, who was placed on the 10-day injured list yesterday due to a left shoulder dislocation, suffered a small fracture in his humeral head that is expected to heal without surgery. However, continued monitoring will ensure this outcome.
Robles, 27, was a top prospect with the Washington Nationals before joining the Mariners last year. He showed significant improvement in his performance after signing a two-year contract worth $9.75 million. In Seattle, he hit .322/.393/.467 with four homers and 20 doubles.
The injury may impact Robles’ return this season, as he was expected to be a regular player. However, the Mariners have expressed relief that the injury is not considered season-ending. The team’s current lineup might need adjustments due to Robles’ absence, potentially benefiting players like Luke Raley and Dominic Canzone, who could see more time in the outfield.
While this setback may raise doubts about Robles’ ability to return for the remainder of the season, the Mariners hope he can avoid surgery and return healthy before the All-Star break.
