Mariners place Luke Raley on IL, recall Stuart Fairchild
Summary

The Seattle Mariners have placed outfielder Luke Raley on the 10-day injured list due to a left forearm strain. His move to the IL follows ongoing elbow pain that has affected his performance throughout the season. Raley's production significantly declined in July after initially showing promise earlier in the year. To fill the roster spot, the Mariners have recalled outfielder Stuart Fairchild, who returns to the organization after a previous stint in 2022. The team will monitor Raley's recovery in hopes of getting him back by season's end.
