2024 Fantasy Outlook
It seems impossible that Robles is still only 26, but it's true. It's been nothing but disappointment for the former top prospect since his promising rookie season back in 2019. Injury was the main culprit last season, as Robles was limited to just 36 games with the Nationals because of lumbar spine spasms. His last game came in late June, but Robles did return to play winter ball and at the moment expects to be healthy heading into next season. He was productive in 2023 when healthy, collecting a .750 OPS, stealing eight bases and cutting his strikeout rate to 14.3 percent over 126 plate appearances. Robles should get the first crack in center field for the Nats and perhaps he'll be motivated in his walk year, but it's difficult to justify even a small investment in him in fantasy leagues.

Still in rehab mode
Nationals manager Dave Martinez said April 8 that Robles has regained full range of motion and has less tenderness in his strained left hamstring, but the outfielder remains limited to rehab work, MLB.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Robles has already spent the minimum 10 days on the injured list but doesn't appear close to a return from the shelf just yet, as he has yet to advance to resuming full baseball activities. At this stage of his recovery, Robles doesn't look like he'll be a realistic candidate to be activated until May. While Robles is sidelined, Jacob Young is expected to continue seeing regular run as the Nationals' primary option in center field.

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. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Off to strong start
Robles is slashing a productive .306/.393/.347 through 59 plate appearances. He's started all 16 of Washington's games thus far.
ANALYSIS
Robles' numbers represent a major bounce back. Since the COVID-shortened 2020 season, Robles has supplied a lowly .216/.291/.306 slash. He's re-invented in 2023, boasting a career-low 13.6 strikeout rate and a career-high 10.2 walk rate. Robles still isn't making hard contact, but he's stolen three bases and has been been racking up hits as well. He's still just 25-years-old.

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.
