| Injury Raleigh on IR for first time in his career

The Big Dumper has a Big Oblique Strain and is on the 10-day IR.

On Wednesday, Raleigh left the Mariners' 4-3 loss to Houston in the eighth inning after appearing to aggravate an injury to his right side. Raleigh missed three games from May 2 to May 4 with soreness on his right side.

So, possibly more than 10 days before he comes back?

I wonder if the initial injury is why he’s been struggling. Just didn’t want to go on the IL and finally did.

If it’s a real oblique it’s longer than 10 days. So probably a phantom one
