He's all tools at this point. Comparing him to Buxon is not a remotely fair comparison. That would be like comparing Buxon to Harper/Trout and saying that Buxon is the number two outfielder.
That literally describes Robles. Mondesi is MUCH further along than Robles right now.

Ben Badler @BenBadlerNationals Low-A CF Victor Robles homered, walked, stole his third base of the year and threw out a runner at home. Man is he fun to watch.
I wonder if he has a small chance of a September callup.
He could turn into the mike trout that mike trout should've been before he got 40 homer power. Maybe like 20 at his peak tops?
at some point we're going to have the "let Harper go because we have Robles" discussion. Ugh.
Talk about filling the stat sheet.22/63 for a .349 average. 3 doubles, 3 triples and 2 HR. 11/14 in stolen bases. Maybe most impressive, he's doing it all with a 9/11 BB/K ratio AND has drawn 7(!) HBP.Good lord.
I'm guessing a few of those HBPs are by annoyed pitchers trying to get even for him stealing on them.
Or just A-ball pitchers being A-ball pitchers Glad to see Robles tearing it up!
