Víctor robles probably missed about 12 weeks

The navies have today gave an update on the outcropper Víctor roblesWho was placed yesterday on the list of wounded 10 days due to dislocation of the left shoulder. Today’s update indicates that dislocation has caused a small fracture in the humeral head in his left shoulder. The club believes that the fracture will heal without surgical intervention, although Robles is continuously monitored to ensure that this is the case. Even if he continues to avoid surgery, the club estimates that it will take six weeks to heal, followed by a six -week rehabilitation process. This suggests that he will miss about 12 weeks, even in the best of cases.

Of course, if there are setbacks along the way or if it is determined that Robles will rather require surgery, this calendar would change. In the two scenarios, since Robles are already considering an absence which would extend to the break of the stars, doubts about its ability to return this season could occur. For the moment, however, sailors are surely relieved that the injury does not seem to be in the end of the season.

Robles, 27, was a long -standing hope with the Nationals who made their debut at the age of 20 in 2017 but have never found its place as regular in Washington. He looked at the dawn of an escape when he struck .258 / .328 / .430 with more defense in 2018-2019, his seasons of 21 years and 22 years old, but in 1124 plaques appearances from 2020 to the time of its release last May, he only struck .222 /. 308.

The navies signed Robles to a big league agreement in early June and was almost immediately rewarded for their show of faith. He fulfilled a bench role from the start, but played so well in a limited role that he forced himself in the daily range in a long time. In 77 games with Seattle, Robles transformed a superlative striking line .322 / .393 / .467 with four circuits, 20 doubles and 30 catchy interceptions in just 31 trials.

Robles was never going to maintain the average of 0.388 on the balls at stake which supported its line of strikers, but it also showed considerably improved contact skills, reducing the rate of withdrawal of 24% which it had displayed by 2020-24 (27.3% with the Nats last year) up to 16.8% as a mariner.

With Seattle, Robles has proven to be much more aggressive, increasing its swing rate on the steps on the plate of several percentage points and also improving its contact rate on said swings. He swung just 49% of the land above the plate during the 2023 season and contacted 84.5% of these swings; With the navies, he offered 53% of the locations in the area and contacted a clip of 87.1%.

Even with an expected regression, the version of the Robles of Robles looked like a more balanced striker than the one who had spent several years fighting at DC, the Front Office to Mariner clearly believed that this was the case, while Robles signed a two -year contract of 9.75 million dollars covering its first two years of free agent last summer. The agreement extends over the 2025-26 campaigns and includes a club option for 2027.

Now Robles will spend about half of the first season of this contract (at least) on the shelf. He had been interrupted as the everyday defender player with Randy Arozarena in the left field and Julio Rodriguez in the central field. Roble injury probably opens the way to more Luke Raley To see more outdoor time. He originally had to play more base in 2025, but a great performance in the spring formation of Rowdy Telz forced sailors to reassess. Seattle Liberated Mitch Haniger And engaged in Telz and Raley dividing the load between the first base and DH.

Raley and Dominic Canzone Figure to get more time in the outside field. It is also possible that utilities Miles mastrobuoni And Dylan Moore could record some rehearsals there. The three of Raley, Canzone and Mastrobuoni are left -handed strikers, so a peloton arrangement among them will not be likely. Raley and the Moore with the right could make sense as a paper peloton, but Moore has been used as an inner field exclusively so far and has played a career of 138 rounds in the outer field last year.

However, it is shaking, the Roble injury is an important setback for a Mariners club which is currently ranking 21st of the majors of the points scored (36). This is also likely to result in a defensive slowdown; The first notes of Robles this season were lower than the average below the average, but it is generally classified as a solid defender in the center and is considered a more potential defender in a corner.
