Victor Robles Receives 10-Game Suspension for Bat-Throwing Incident During Rehab

Seattle Mariners outfielder Victor Robles has been suspended 10 games and fined an undisclosed amount by Major League Baseball for throwing his bat at Triple-A pitcher Joey Estes during a rehab assignment game on Sunday, an action that led to his immediate ejection. Robles is currently with the Triple-A Tacoma Rainiers, recovering from a shoulder injury sustained in April, and the suspension will take effect upon his return to the Mariners' active roster. He is appealing the disciplinary action, which means it is currently on hold. Robles reportedly apologized on social media, attributing his outburst to frustration stemming from his prolonged rehab, mental challenges, and a recent personal loss, noting he had been hit by pitches three times in previous games.
