Cal Raleigh Powers Mariners Past Rays, 5-2
by Jesse Garcia | Mariners Correspondent | Thu, Jun 27th 7:32am EDT
Cal Raleigh went 1-for-2 with a home run and three RBI in the Mariners' 5-2 victory over the Rays.
Fantasy Impact:
His offensive contribution was crucial, driving in over half of Seattle's runs with his blast. Despite a modest .204 batting average this season, Raleigh's power numbers remain a bright spot, with 14 homers and 49 RBI through 77 games. His ability to draw walks, as evidenced by his two in this game, helps offset a high strikeout rate and boosts his on-base percentage, making him a valuable asset in leagues that reward walks or on-base percentage. While his batting average and BABIP suggest some struggles with consistent contact, his power and RBI production keep him relevant in fantasy formats, especially those that are catcher-starved.
