Seattle Mariners Catcher Cal Raleigh Continues Tremendous 2025 Season

Seattle Mariners Catcher Cal Raleigh is putting together a historic regular season. He hit his 24th home run of the year in yesterday’s 4-3 loss against the Baltimore Orioles. That is the second-most home runs by a catcher before the start of July in league history. Johnny Bench hit 25 round-trippers in 1970. Raleigh should shatter Bench’s record over the coming weeks.

Raleigh is having the best season of his career at the plate. He is leading the league in home runs, sixth in RBI, and fourth in OPS. Will the star catcher continue swinging a hot bat as the 2025 season marches on?

Cal Raleigh Career Summary

Raleigh made his debut with the Seattle Mariners in 2021. His career really took off in 2022. He then won a Gold Glove and a Platinum Glove last season. If he can keep up his level of play, he will make his first career MLB All-Star Game and finish toward the top of the American League MVP voting. He signed a big contract extension before the start of the regular season. He has more than lived up to it over the first few months of the regular season.

Final Thoughts

Raleigh and the Seattle Mariners return to the diamond this evening on the road to begin a three-game series against the Los Angeles Angels. The catcher has carried a Mariners offense that has not played up to its potential in 2025.
