The good news is the worst-case version of this story has not arrived. Raleigh has returned to the Mariners’ starting lineup Tuesday night against the Braves after missing three games with soreness in his right oblique. The Mariners aren’t asking him to catch just yet, which is worth noting, but they are comfortable enough to put him back in his usual No. 2 spot as the designated hitter. This is still a pretty clear signal that Seattle feels comfortable enough with him swinging a bat. So the fact that Raleigh is already back in the lineup, even at DH, is the kind of update the Mariners absolutely needed. Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times also reported that Raleigh was playing catch before the game, which adds another encouraging layer to the whole thing.  This is where the Mariners have to be careful, though. Raleigh avoiding the IL for now is a relief. It’s not a reason to pretend the scare never happened.…
