Raley went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Friday's 10-2 win over the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
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.

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

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

Raley went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in a loss to the Angels on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Raley's hit was only his second over the last nine games, a nightmarish stretch of 29 plate appearances during which 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.

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

Raley went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in a loss to the Blue Jays on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Raley got the Mariners to within one run in the ninth with his 379-foot solo shot to right field, but Seattle was ultimately unable to force extra innings. The 29-year-old snapped a nine-game power drought with his blast, locking in a double-digit home-run total for the second straight season in the process.
