Seattle Mariners outfielder Victor Robles will serve a seven-game suspension starting Friday for throwing his bat in the direction of a pitcher during a minor-league rehab game.

Robles was initially banned for 10 games after the Aug. 17 incident but saw his punishment reduced following an appeal.

The 28-year-old will be eligible to return Sept. 6 against the Atlanta Braves.

The Mariners activated Robles off the injured list last Sunday. He went 2-for-13 with two RBIs over four games while appealing his suspension.

Robles has played in just 14 contests this season. He's missed the majority of the 2025 campaign while recovering from a dislocated shoulder sustained in early April.
