The Seattle Mariners welcomed back catcher Cal Raleigh and infielder J.P. Crawford from the injured list Tuesday ahead of a six-game homestand.
Raleigh rejoined the club 33 days after landing on the injured list with a right oblique strain. Crawford returned 10 days after suffering a right hand contusion.
Manager Dan Wilson highlighted the impact of Raleigh’s return. “Obviously, getting Cal back is huge,” Wilson said. “Having him behind the plate and active and ready to go is a huge lift.”
During his rehab assignment, Raleigh batted 6-for-14 with five home runs in four games at Triple-A Tacoma. Crawford started at third base for the first time since joining the Mariners in 2019.
The returns provide added stability after the team used multiple players at several positions during a recent road trip.
