PT TOMORROW: NL East—Hopeless Robles?

Washington Nationals

Uttering the name Victor Robles (OF, WAS) has been the fantasy equivalent of bringing up politics or religion at a family gathering: you know you shouldn’t do it, everyone has asked you not to, but you’ll be damned if your drunk uncle Peter has the last word on him before the night is through. The Robles truthers may have dwindled in number, but there are those who still believe that he can—and will—approach the heights of his 2019 performance. We’ll set the bar much lower and ask: what are the chances of Robles finishing the year as the starting CF in WAS?

Craptastic is a strong word, but perhaps not too strong to describe Robles’s production in 2021: .224/.338/.306, 15 R, 0 HR, 6 RBI, 6 SB, 3 CS in 134 AB. That...

Almost!
