Victor Robles’ agent, Rafa Nieves, had some nice things to say about his client and the Mariners yesterday. Personally, I’ve seen enough from Robles to merit an extension. Regression shmegression I want this guy on this team. It can probably wait until the offseason, but I could get used to a Julio, Randy, Victor outfield for at least one more season.
Victor Robles last 248 PA:
.303/.386/.408 127 wRC+ 22 SB 5 DRS
He’s only 27 years old, and was a top 5 overall MLB prospect with elite makeup and energy who contributed to a World Series team in his rookie year.

Around the league...
The only way this guy could get any better is if he somehow started to pitch. That’d be crazy!
Some may recall back in the Fox Sports Northwest days there was a highlight show called Final Score that was hosted by Andrew Siciliano. Siciliano had a tendency to do different animated voices and inflections when highlights for certain players came up, including Ichiro and Brad Lidge (ruh roh Rad Ridge!) My favorite of these was when he would put on a caveman-esque voice for a Mike Morse homerun highlight and say, “me Mike Morse, hit ball hard.” I like to think Andrew would’ve narrated this clip as, “me Ben Joyce, throw ball hard.”
Ben Joyce records his first big league save ... by notching a K on a 104.7 mph fastball, the fastest pitch in the Majors this year!
