Passan’s view on ‘unprecedented’ extension for Mariners’ Victor Robles

Robles got a $1.25 million signing bonus as part of the deal announced Monday and salaries of $3.5 million in 2025 and $4.5 million in 2026. The 27-year-old outfielder can earn $1 million each year in performance bonuses for plate appearances: $500,000 each for 500 and 600.

In addition, his 2026 salary can escalate by up to $1 million based on plate appearances in 2025: $500,000 each for 500 and 600.

Seattle has a $9 million team option for 2027 with a $500,000 buyout.

Robles is hitting .292 with three homers, seven doubles, eight RBIs and 12 stolen bases in 43 games with the Mariners. He signed with Seattle on June 4, three days after he was released by Washington.

Once a top prospect with the Nationals, Robles played in just 36 games last season and then hit .120 in 14 games before being designated for assignment on May 27.

He has reached 500 plate appearances just once, getting 617 in 2019 as the Nationals won the World Series title.
