Opening a series at T-Mobile Park, the Seattle Mariners and the New York Yankees will go head to head, Monday, May 12, 2025. First pitch: 9:40 p.m. ET. The game will serve as the curtain-raiser for a three-game series between two potent American League teams.
The Mariners are expected to have righthander Emerson Hancock on the mound for the first game, while the Yankees are expected to counter with Clarke Schmidt. With playoff implications, it will be vital for both teams to try to set their standings early in the act.
Cal Raleigh's conditioning is still up in the air One of the major talking points going into the game tonight will be about the status of Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh. A powerful bat for the Mariners, Raleigh is leading his team in home runs with 12 and is considered a core component both offensively and defensively.
Raleigh experienced some thumb discomfort while catching, which resulted in being taken out of Sunday’s game versus the Kansas City Royals. The Mariners have not released an update on his condition; hence, he remains questionable for tonight. A loss for Raleigh would create a big hole in the batting order and behind the plate.
Cal Raleigh’s injury status remains uncertainThe Seattle side has been wrestling with an increasing list of injuries to key players. Luke Raley is on the 10-day IL with a left-side injury, while the starters Logan Gilbert and George Kirby both carry arm and shoulder issues into the inactive list.
Trent Thornton is sidelined, along with Gregory Santos and Jackson Kowar, who all find themselves together on the 60-day IL. But despite all these difficulties, the Mariners have strengthened their claim to contend with timely contributions from Julio Rodríguez and a comeback-grade bullpen.
Will Cal Raleigh suit up?On game morning, Cal Raleigh's status remains a game-time decision. If he does make it back in time, he would provide a big boost for the Mariners as they head into a challenging series against the Yankees.
Should he be sidelined once again, Seattle will need to think on its feet and ask its backup catchers to share the burden. Fans and analysts alike will be watching very closely for official word as game time approaches.
