Cal Raleigh Exits With Apparent Side Injury on Wednesday Night
Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh (side) left the game on Wednesday night against the Houston Astros in the bottom of the ninth inning, according to Daniel Kramer of MLB.com. Mitch Garver replaced Raleigh behind the plate after the left-handed slugger was seen grabbing at his right side in the eighth inning. Before leaving, the struggling catcher went hitless in his four at-bats with two strikeouts to drop his season average to a paltry .161 and his OPS to .560. The 29-year-old All-Star missed three games earlier in May due to soreness in the same side, so this could definitely be something that sends Raleigh to the injured list. We should know more about the severity of his injury on Thursday, so fantasy managers will want to check back for an update then. At the very least, Raleigh probably won't play in Thursday's series finale in Houston, and he might not be available this weekend when the team returns home to face the San Diego Padres for a three-game series. After leading all of baseball with 60 homers and 125 RBI in 2025, Raleigh has been one of the biggest disappointments so far in 2026, with seven homers and 18 RBI in his 41 games played.
