MLB 2026: Breaking down Cal Raleigh's first 13 games
"In their first 13 games, the Mariners hit an abysmal .184, so despite a franchise-best 2.62 ERA over that span, they currently sit at the bottom of the standings with a disappointing 4-9 record."
"Most frustrating is their 2-3-4-5 hitters -- Cal Raleigh, Julio Rodriguez, Josh Naylor and Randy Arozarena -- are a combined 26-for-195 (.133) with just one home run."
"Raleigh, however, who faces the early intense scrutiny out of that group, is hitting .143 with one home run on seven hits and a whopping 21 strikeouts, which is the second most in MLB."
The Seattle Mariners have had a poor start to the season, hitting only .184 in their first 13 games and sitting at the bottom of the standings with a 4-9 record. Their offense has been particularly disappointing, with key hitters like Cal Raleigh and Julio Rodriguez struggling significantly. Raleigh, coming off a record-setting season, has a batting average of .143 and leads the team in strikeouts. The Mariners recently faced a sweep in Texas, scoring only three runs in three games, highlighting their offensive woes.
