Toronto Blue Jays Face Challenge with Seattle Mariners' Cal Raleigh
The Toronto Blue Jays discovered the difficulty of pitching around Seattle Mariners slugger Cal Raleigh during Game 2 of the ALCS.
Two years ago, Toronto Blue Jays manager John Schneider made a notable comment about Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh. After Raleigh hit two home runs in a comeback, extra-innings win in Toronto in April 2023, Schneider said:
“He’s hitting .200,” ... “I know he’s done damage against us. … He’s obviously got big damage potential and he’s got a lot of strikeout potential, too, and when you execute your pitches, you usually get the job done.
This quote was made when Raleigh was still rising to prominence, and now he is the future MLB single-season home run record holder for catcher and switch-hitters.
