2024 Fantasy Outlook
Affectionately nicknamed "Big Dumper," Raleigh turned in his first career 30-homer season in 2023, finishing fifth at the catcher position in earned fantasy value behind William Contreras, J.T. Realmuto, Jonah Heim and Will Smith. Raleigh is rather one dimensional at the plate, though to his credit he raised his batting average from .211 to a more-palatable .232 last season. He's also drawn walks at roughly a 10 percent clip the last two seasons, helping offset a strikeout rate pushing 30 percent. Raleigh made 14 starts at designated hitter in 2023, and while that number could always take a hit, he projects to remain in the starting lineup most days. The 27-year-old has an exceptional arm behind the plate and at this point is an important part of the leadership and game-calling with the Seattle pitching staff. He temporarily silenced his doubters with his performance at the dish last season, but beware the average can largely offset the power contributions if it gets low enough. Read Past Outlooks
Another day, another homer
Raleigh went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and three RBI in the Mariners' 10-2 win over the Rockies in Game 2 of their doubleheader Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Raleigh launched a two-run homer off reliever Noah Davis in the top of the sixth inning, driving in Julio Rodriguez in the process. He later added a sacrifice fly in the top of the eighth, scoring J.P. Crawford for his third RBI of the game. The home run was the catcher's fifth of the season and his third over the last four games. Following Sunday's pair of contests, Raleigh is batting .258 with five homers, 11 RBI and 10 runs scored over 66 at-bats in 19 contests this year.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Well positioned
Raleigh is slashing a solid .273/.304/.545 through 22 Cactus league at-bats. While he doesn't have a home run, his prodigious slugging has remained.
ANALYSIS
Raleigh broke out last season, mashing 27 bombs en route to a .489 slugging percentage. Tom Murphy represents the primary competition for at-bats at catcher, and he's gotten plenty of opportunities this spring, but Raleigh's lessened workload aligns with the load management of other key starters. There's always concern for sustained production after an emergent season, but the 26-year-old Raleigh has advantages in youth, defensive metrics, and pop over Murphy.

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2021
All aboard the Big Dumper express! Raleigh earned the moniker from Jarred Kelenic with his breakout sophomore season hitting timely homers with stellar defense as Raleigh seemingly aimed to remind Seattle what they once had in Mike Zunino. Raleigh's batting average was nothing to write home about as it hovered there most of the season with some peaks (.254 in down the stretch) and valleys (.136 into June), but his 121 wRC+ was well above the 89 figure the catching position as a whole produced league-wide. Like Zunino, the story here is raw power and Raleigh has plenty of it with the ability to launch a baseball to all fields with a prevalance to crank and yank them down the right field line. His numbers against righties and lefties are nearly identical and the defense means he is the primary catcher as long as the recovery from offseason hand surgery goes well. He is one of the primary reasons the catching position is no longer considered a black hole as he went from undraftable in 15 team leagues last season to a likely top 8 catcher on draft boards this season.
