Idle versus southpaw Raley isn't in the Mariners' lineup for Wednesday's game against the Tigers, Shannon Drayer of SeattleSports.com reports.

Impact With lefty Tarik Skubal set to start on the mound for Detroit, the left-handed bat of Raley will step out of the lineup Wednesday. Mitch Haniger will start in right field with Cal Raleigh serving as the DH, and Mitch Garver will do the catching for George Kirby.

Swats solo home run Raley went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Tuesday's loss to the Tigers.

Impact Raley finally got the Mariners on the board with a solo home run in the fifth. It was his second home run over the last four games, a span during which he's compiled six RBI. Despite the recent production, Raley has been struggling at the dish for quite a while now, slashing .146/.247/.341 while striking out 32.3 percent of the time in 93 plate appearances since July 2. For the year, he's slashing .228/.288/.419 with 13 homers, 35 RBI, 38 runs, nine steals and an 11:99 BB:K in 314 plate appearances.

Delivers as in-game replacement Raley entered Saturday's extra-inning win over the Phillies as a pinch hitter in the sixth inning and remained in the game as the designated hitter, going 1-for-2 with a two-run do...

Impact Raley originally had the night off, but he was called on to hit for Mitch Garver in the sixth and the bases loaded. The slugger delivered in a critical moment, driving home Justin Turner and Jorge Polanco with his timely two-bagger to push his RBI total across the last two games to five. Raley has now reached safely in each of the last six games in which he's registered an official plate appearance, and he's laced three of his five hits during that span for extra bases.

Idle Saturday Raley isn't in the Mariners' lineup Saturday against the Phillies.

Impact Raley will get a breather Saturday after belting a three-run homer during a win in Friday's series opener. While he rests, Mitch Haniger will start in right field with Mitch Garver serving as Seattle's designated hitter.

Hammers 12th homer Raley went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Friday's 10-2 win over the Phillies.

Impact Raley put the Mariners ahead 4-0 with his second-inning blast. That was just his third long ball over his last 23 contests. The 29-year-old was batting .261 at the end of June, but after hitting just .129 in July, he's at a .228 average for the year now. He's added a .698 OPS, 12 homers, nine stolen bases, 32 RBI and 37 runs scored across 95 games.

Swipes two bags Wednesday Raley went 1-for-3 with two stolen bases in Wednesday's extra-inning loss to Boston.

Impact Raley got the start in center field with Victor Robles (hip) sitting out, and he took advantage of the opportunity with a pair of thefts. It was just the second start in five contests for Raley, though that's largely a consequence of the Mariners facing a pair of southpaws during that span. Raley is batting just .188 with a 33.3 percent strikeout rate against lefties this season, so it stands to reason that he'll continue to be on the bench more often than not against left-handed starters.

AUGUST 1, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

On bench Tuesday Raley is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against Boston.

Impact The lefty-hitting Raley will take a seat against southpaw James Paxton and the Red Sox on Tuesday. Mitch Garver will DH while Mitch Haniger fills right field.

On bench again Sunday Raley is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox, Shannon Drayer of SeattleSports.com reports.

Impact It's the second straight game on the bench for Raley following the acquisition of Randy Arozarena. Raley hasn't done much in July to retain a place in the lineup with a .488 OPS and 31.9 percent strikeout rate in 19 games, and his playing time could diminish down the stretch, especially if the Mariners make further additions ahead of Tuesday's trade deadline.

Sitting Saturday Raley is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the White Sox.

Impact Raley will begin Saturday's game in the dugout after going 1-for-5 with a double and a strikeout in Friday's 10-0 win over the White Sox. Jason Vosler takes over as the designated hitter, batting sixth.

Records seventh steal in loss Raley went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in a loss to the Angels on Wednesday.

Impact Raley's hit was only his second over the last nine games, a nightmarish stretch of 29 plate appearances where the outfielder has posted a 27.6 percent strikeout rate. Raley's steal was also his seventh of the season, putting him halfway to the career-best 14 he recorded with the Rays in 2023. The 29-year-old's recent struggles notwithstanding, Raley doesn't appear to be in danger of losing his grip on an everyday role with the Mariners now down both Dominic Canzone (thigh) and Julio Rodriguez (ankle) in the outfield.

Homers in Sunday's win Raley went 1-for-3 with a three-run homer and two runs scored in Sunday's 6-4 win over the Astros.

Impact Raley punished a first-pitch sweeper from Seth Martinez for a huge three-run blast to put the Mariners up 6-2 in the sixth inning. The homer was Raley's first hit since notching a single back on July 10 and he drove in his first RBI since July 6, which was the last time he'd homered before Sunday. The 29-year-old lefty is now slashing .235/.293/.420 with 11 homers, 29 RBI, 35 runs and a 10:88 BB:K in 277 plate appearances.
