Victor Robles received a 10-game suspension and an undisclosed fine for throwing his bat at Las Vegas starter Joey Estes during a Triple A rehab game. Robles had previously been hit by a pitch three times in four games. He expressed frustration during the incident and took to social media to apologize for his actions. Robles noted that he has faced challenges during his rehab and cited the recent passing of his mother as a contributing factor. He is currently appealing the suspension, which will take effect once he returns to the Mariners' active roster.
Robles, who had been hit by a pitch three times in his previous four games with Tacoma, took some steps toward the mound while yelling at the pitcher but was held back by McCarthy and others.
Coming off a long rehab and being away from the game for most of the season has been physically and mentally challenging. Adding to that, the recent passing of my mother has been incredibly hard.
