Cal Raleigh (C/DH - SEA)
6/1/26 10:05 AM - Even without Cal Raleigh, the Mariners have used power and pitching to move in front in the AL West. The AL West may have missed its chance to leave the Seattle Mariners behind. Seattle has been under .500 for most of the season, but now the Mariners are 31-29 and lead the division after six straight victories. They’ve made this run without slugger Cal Raleigh, who was hitting .161 when he went on the injured list over two weeks ago. Despite Raleigh’s absence, the Mariners are fourth in the American League in home runs. But pitching is what has driven this recent run. Seattle has held opponents to two runs or fewer in five of its last six games.

Framber Valdez (P - DET)
6/1/26 10:01 AM - Zen And The Art Of Fantasy Baseball: Rostering Framber Valdez – On Balance Amid Frustration, And A Good Dose Of “What Is Your Problem, Man?”. This season’s line for Valdez is enough to inspire a rage drop: in 67.2 IP, he has damaged his fantasy managers by earning a 4.39 ERA (supported by a 4.34 xERA, 4.14 FIP, and 4.29 xFIP) and a 1.32 WHIP. His BB/9 is up to 3.33, not great. His K/9 is down to 7.18, also not great. His K% makes things look even worse, as he’s down to 18.3% from last year’s 23.3%, causing his K-BB% to drop from last year’s 14.8% to 9.8% in 2026.
