Optioned to alternate camp Raley was optioned to the Dodgers' alternate training site Thursday.

Impact Raley had started five of the last seven games, and he slashed .206/.308/.324 with a home run, two RBI and 12 strikeouts in 14 games during his time on the active roster. However, he'll now return to the team's alternate training site after right-hander Mitch White was reinstated from the COVID-19 injured list in a corresponding move.

Steps into Thursday's lineup Raley will start in right field and bat eighth Thursday against the Padres, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.

Impact Zach McKinstry (back) was a late scratch from the lineup, forcing Raley into a starting role. The Dodgers are also without Chris Taylor (back), Gavin Lux (wrist) and Cody Bellinger (leg), which could give Raley the opportunity for increased playing time in the short term.

Takes seat Sunday Raley is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Padres.

Impact Raley will take a seat after going 3-for-13 with a home run while starting each of the past three games in left field. Though he'll bow out of the lineup with lefty Blake Snell on the mound for the Padres, the lefty-hitting Raley could still see semi-regular work against right-handed pitching while two everyday players in Cody Bellinger (lower leg) and Gavin Lux (wrist) are both on the shelf.

Hits first big-league homer Raley went 2-for-6 with a home run and two RBI in Friday's victory over the Padres.

Impact The rookie got the Dodgers on the board in the fifth inning with a 436-foot solo shot for his first major-league home run. He drove in another run in the 12th inning on an infield single. Raley hit 20 homers in the minors in 2018, so he has the ability to provide some power when given the chance to play. The 26-year-old may not have many opportunities when the Dodgers return to full health, however.

Seager's homer in 12th sends Dodgers to 11-6 win over Padres

Summoned to majors Raley was recalled prior to Friday's game against the Nationals, J.P. Hoornstra of the Los Angeles Daily News reports.

Impact This is the corresponding move to Cody Bellinger (left calf contusion) landing on the 10-day injured list. Raley has big raw power and is a shaky defensive option, so he will primarily provide left-handed power off the bench, although he could see the occassional start in the outfield corners while Bellinger is on the shelf.

Heads to minor-league camp The Dodgers optioned Raley to their minor-league camp Monday, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.

Impact Raley is expected to report to Triple-A Oklahoma City as he begins his second stint in the Los Angeles organization in 2021. The Dodgers -- who previously selected Raley in the seventh round of the 2016 first-year player draft -- reacquired him from the Twins last February, but he didn't get the chance to play in 2020 due to the cancellation of the minor-league season.
