  14D ago • By RotoWire

  Raleigh went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Saturday's 11-0 win over the Blue Jays. Raleigh smacked a three-run shot in the bottom of the sixth inning to put the Mariners in double digits. It was the 29-year-old's first hit in three July contests, and he's now batting just .161 with two homers and nine RBI in 17 games since returning from the injured list June 16. On the year, he has a lowly .573 OPS with nine homers, 27 RBI, 22 runs scored and two steals across 250 plate appearances.

  25D ago • By RotoWire

  Raleigh went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Pirates. Raleigh got Seattle on the board with his fourth-inning blast off Mitch Keller, his eighth homer this year and first since April 27. Prior to Tuesday, Raleigh had gone just 3-for-18 with no extra-base hits in six games since returning from a month-long stint on the IL. It's been a disappointing season overall for Raleigh after his breakout 2025 campaign -- he's now slashing .164/.258/.317 with 21 RBI and 18 runs scored over 209 plate appearances.

• Mariners' Cal Raleigh: Plates two in return

  06/17/2026 • By RotoWire

  Raleigh went 1-for-3 with a walk and two RBI in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Orioles. Raleigh returned from a month-long absence due to an oblique strain. He caught all nine innings and delivered the Mariners' winning play at the plate with a two-run single in the seventh. Prior to his stint on the injured list, he went just 2-for-44 (.045) over a 12-game stretch. He should see a majority of the time behind the dish moving forward, though Raleigh may serve as designated hitter occasionally to keep his bat in the lineup without taking too much of a toll on his body. He's batting just .165 with a .566 OPS, seven home runs, 20 RBI, 16 runs scored, four doubles and two stolen bases over 42 contests this season.

• Mariners' Cal Raleigh: Back from injured list

  06/16/2026 • By RotoWire

  The Mariners reinstated Raleigh (oblique) from the 10-day injured list Tuesday. After missing over a month of action as a result of being placed on the IL on May 14, Raleigh is back with the big-league club. The catcher completed a five-game rehab assignment between High-A Everett and Triple-A Tacoma before being cleared to return to Seattle. In order to make room on the roster for Raleigh, the Mariners optioned Jhonny Pereda to Tacoma.

• Mariners' Cal Raleigh: Activation from IL imminent

  06/15/2026 • By RotoWire

  Raleigh (oblique) is expected to be reinstated from the 10-day injured list prior to Tuesday's game against the Orioles, Adam Jude of The Seattle Times reports. Seattle is poised to get some major reinforcement to the lineup ahead of its six-game week, as infielder J.P. Crawford (hand) is also on track to return from the IL on Tuesday. Coming off last season's runner-up finish in the AL MVP race, Raleigh has been a major disappointment so far in 2026 with a lowly .560 OPS in 41 games before he landed on the IL on May 14 due to a right oblique strain. On an encouraging note, Raleigh looked to be dialed in at the dish during his five-game rehab assignment between High-A Everett and Triple-A Tacoma, reaching base in every contest while going a collective 7-for-17 with five home runs and a 2:3 BB:K. He should step back in immediately as Seattle's No. 1 catcher after the Mariners had been leaning on timeshare of Jhonny Pereda and Mitch Garver behind the plate over the past month.
