Overview

• Robles received a 10-game suspension and an undisclosed fine for throwing his bat toward pitcher Joey Estes during a Triple-A game.
• Because the discipline must be served at the major-league level, the suspension will begin on the first day he returns to Seattle’s active roster.
• Robles has appealed, so the penalty is on hold and he remains eligible to play until the process concludes.
• He was ejected by home plate umpire Joe McCarthy after the incident, which followed a shoulder-high inside pitch; he had been hit multiple times during the rehab stint.
• Robles apologized on social media, citing the strain of a long injury comeback and the recent passing of his mother; The Seattle Times reports the Mariners would play a man short during his suspension.
