www.si.comHere’s the latest I could confirm about Luke Raley’s injury situation.
- Luke Raley was placed on the injured list with a right oblique strain in late April 2025, with an estimated recovery of at least six weeks at that time. This is the most solid contemporary reporting on his oblique issue from the Mariners’ perspective [source coverage from MLB.com and Seattle Times at the time] [cite ][cite ].
- Subsequent updates in May 2025 indicated he would be out at least six weeks, reinforcing that the injury was substantial enough to sideline him for an extended stretch rather than a short stint [cite ].
- There were other reports in the period noting Raley’s involvement in the lineup and then an injury setback during batting practice, which contributed to the timeline of his absence [cite ][cite ].
What this means for fans and fantasy perspectives
- The injury was a右 oblique strain, which typically requires careful rehabilitation; the six-week figure was a baseline, and actual return could vary depending on symptom resolution and medical guidance [cite ].
- During his absence, Mariners' roster adjustments and call-ups were common as they managed the outfield and overall depth on the roster [cite ].
