Swinging in cages Raleigh (oblique) began taking swings in a batting cage Friday, Adam Jude of The Seattle Times reports
Impact Raleigh has been ramping up his activity at the Mariners' complex in Arizona over the past few days, and his return to swinging a bat marks an encouraging step forward as he works his way back from a right oblique strain. He's set to return to Seattle on Saturday to check in with the team, though he likely still has a couple more weeks of rehab ahead of him before he's cleared to come off the IL.

Impact It marks Raleigh's first baseball activity since being placed on the 10-day injured list in mid-May due to a right oblique strain.

Shut down one week The Mariners will shut Raleigh (oblique) down for a week before reevaluating him, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.
Impact The results of Raleigh's MRI were reportedly better than the one he received earlier in the month, but after placing him on the injured list Thursday, the Mariners will give the slugging catcher a week to focus on rest and recovery. His period of no activity will almost certainly require him to spend more than the 10-day minimum on the shelf, and a clearer timeline for his return may take shape after his reevaluation. In the meantime, Mitch Garver and Jhonny Pereda will share backstop duties for the M's.

Placed on IL for first time The Mariners placed Raleigh on the 10-day injured list Thursday with a right oblique strain, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.
Impact Raleigh tweaked his oblique Wednesday in Houston and has landed on the IL for the first time in his career.

Mitch Garver is starting at catcher and batting eighth in Thursday's series finale.

Removed with injury Raleigh was removed from Wednesday's game against the Astros with an apparent right side injury, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.
Impact Raleigh was spotted wincing in pain and grabbing at his right side during the eighth inning, and he was replaced on defense when Seattle took the field in the ninth. The slugging backstop missed three games earlier this month due to soreness on the same side, and although the severity of his latest flare-up is unknown, the Mariners may now have to send him to the injured list. Mitch Garver would start any games that Raleigh has to miss.

Brings end to 0-for-38 slump Raleigh went 2-for-4 with a walk and three runs in Tuesday's 10-2 win over the Astros.
Impact After drawing a walk in the first inning, Raleigh's hitless skid continued in his next two at-bats with a strikeout and a flyout, but he finally put an end to an 0-for-38 stretch at the plate in the seventh, when he sent a hard-hit single into right center. Raleigh followed with another base hit off AJ Blubaugh in his final at-bat off the night, offering hope to fantasy managers that better days are ahead for the reigning American League MVP runner-up. Even after reaching base three times Tuesday, Raleigh is still maintaining a lowly .249 on-base percentage for the season, placing him 171st among baseball's 176 qualified hitters.
