2023 Fantasy Outlook
Robles rose through the minors with plenty of prospect pedigree, is still just 25 years old and plays good defense in center field. If you're looking for reasons to still be in on the young outfielder, that's a pretty good place to start. Unfortunately, that's also pretty much where the list ends. His 224/.273/.311 line last season was good for a 64 wRC+, marking the third straight year he's been in the sixties in that category. Nothing under the hood suggests he deserves much better; if anything, his .203 xBA suggests he may have overachieved. His plate discipline (25.6 K%, 4.2 BB%) was terrible, and when he did make contact, his hard-hit rate sat in the first percentile. Robles shouldn't have too much competition for playing time on a rebuilding Nationals team, so his playing time and decent speed could make him appealing in deeper formats, though that assumes Washington is still committed to a player who's produced 0.0 fWAR across the last three campaigns.

Might not return this year
Manager Dave Martinez said Friday that it is "going to be hard" for Robles (back) to return this season, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.
ANALYSIS
Robles has been on the injured list since late June due to a lingering back injury and is rapidly running out of time to rejoin the Nationals. The 26-year-old outfielder has appeared in only 36 major-league games this season.

Stat Review
How does Victor Robles compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank.

Are we still dreaming of the peak 2019 season for Victor Robles with 17 home runs, 28 stolen bases, and a .255 batting average? It seems that way since Robles compiled five home runs and 12 stolen bases with a .209 batting average in 558 PA (2020-2021). Robles rocks a healthy 24.5% LD%, but the contact quality stinks with a career Barrel% of 3.8%. Even the exit velocity on flyballs and line drives, Robles ranked 130th in 2019, last in 2020, and 226th in 2021. Teams have shifted more against Robles with 12.9% in 2019, 22.9% in 2020, and 29.2% in 2021. The career 47% Pull% led to a .256 wOBA against the shift in 2021 down from .260 in 2020 and .328 in 2019. With an ADP past pick 350, we're hoping Robles bounces back for steals. However, the poor contact quality, plus other concerns might limit the upside.
