Victor Robles Expected to Miss 12 Weeks with Shoulder Injury

Seattle Mariners outfielder Victor Robles will miss at least 12 weeks due to a dislocated left shoulder that resulted in a small fracture. The injury occurred during a game against the San Francisco Giants when Robles made a catch and collided with the wall, leading to an MRI that confirmed the fracture. Mariners general manager Justin Hollander indicated that surgery is not currently required, and if the fracture heals as expected, Robles will undergo approximately six weeks of rehabilitation after the initial healing period. Robles was performing well as the leadoff hitter, batting .273 with three doubles and three stolen bases before his injury. In his absence, Luke Raley is expected to take over right field duties, with other options available depending on matchups. The Mariners are currently struggling, holding a record of 4-7 early in the season.
