Overview
- Raleigh rejoined the starting lineup Tuesday against the Braves as the designated hitter, which points away from an immediate injured-list move.
- He felt tightness on his right side during Friday's loss to the Royals, underwent an MRI the next day, and then missed three games.
- Both Raleigh and manager Dan Wilson said the issue was minor and chose brief rest to prevent a longer setback.
- Mitch Garver and call-up Jhonny Pereda covered catching duties, and Pereda would likely be optioned to Triple-A Tacoma once Raleigh returns behind the plate.
- His availability matters for Seattle's offense, as five of his seven home runs have come in his last 10 games.
