Raleigh Returns, Mariners Hope for Power Surge

Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh is set to return from a three-game absence due to right side tightness, batting second against the Atlanta Braves. Despite speculation of an injured list stint, Raleigh has avoided it and is ready to swing. With a record-breaking 60 home runs in 2025, Raleigh currently has 7 blasts in 2026, but his batting average and OPS are down. The Mariners may use him as a designated hitter to ease his recovery, as he aims to spark a turnaround for the team. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
