Overview
- Robles was reinstated from the 60-day injured list and started in right field Saturday against left-hander Jeffrey Springs, batting seventh.
- Major League Baseball issued a 10-game suspension for Robles after he threw his bat toward pitcher Joey Estes during a Triple-A rehab game, leading to an ejection by umpire Joe McCarthy.
- The penalty is stayed during his appeal, allowing him to play; if the suspension stands, he must serve it in the majors and the Mariners would be a player short during that span.
- Moore, 33, was designated for assignment to open active and 40-man roster spots, and he will go on waivers with the right to elect free agency if unclaimed due to his service time.
- Robles apologized publicly, citing the strain of a long rehab and the recent passing of his mother, and accepted responsibility for his conduct.
