SEATTLE (AP) \u2014 Seattle Mariners<\/a> catcher Cal Raleigh<\/a> is out of the starting lineup for the third straight game with a sore right side, manager Dan Wilson said Monday.<\/p>\n

Raleigh began experiencing soreness following Friday night\u2019s game against the Kansas City Royals<\/a> and was a late scratch on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Raleigh said there wasn\u2019t a specific moment Friday when he felt the injury happen and that he was \u201cplaying it safe\u201d on the recommendation of the team\u2019s training staff. He had on MRI on Saturday and is awaiting results.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think he’s getting himself into a good spot,” Wilson said. \u201cHe’s testing himself a little more today. We’ll have more information once we see how he feels after he’s done some work today.\u201d<\/p>\n

Seattle has yet to make any decisions about whether Raleigh will be put on the injured list.<\/p>\n

\u201cA decision will be forthcoming here within the next day or so,\u201d Wilson said.<\/p>\n

Wilson didn’t say if Raleigh would be available off the bench against the Atlanta Braves<\/a> on Monday night.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat kind of decision would be made closer to game time,\u201d Wilson said.<\/p>\n

Raleigh, who was the runner-up for AL MVP last season after hitting 60 homers and driving in 125 runs, is hitting .186 with seven homers and 18 RBIs through 33 games. After getting off to an extremely slow start at the plate, Raleigh has started to heat up, with five of his homers coming in the past 15 games.<\/p>\n
