Mariners Sign Former Top Prospect Victor Robles

The 27-year-old outfielder joins Seattle after being released by the Nationals, aiming to revive his career.

Robles was a top prospect with the Nationals but struggled with performance and injuries in recent years.
The Mariners will pay only the prorated league minimum salary, with the Nationals covering the rest of his $2.65 million salary.
Robles will primarily face left-handed pitchers and serve as a defensive replacement or pinch runner.
He showed promise in 2019 with 17 home runs and 28 stolen bases, contributing to the Nationals' World Series win.
Robles hit .299 last season but has struggled in limited appearances this year.
