Luke Raley starting to find his way, and his role, in first season with Mariners

In a sit-down conversation with Scott Servais the other day, Luke Raley got the clarity he was looking for, and some honest feedback from the Mariners manager. “Having that conversation and seeing things through his eyes, knowing what your role is on this team — the transparency is great,” Raley said. Smooth start, it was not, for Raley in his first weeks with the Mariners. Raley can do a little bit of everything, and that's why the Mariners acquired him in a trade with the Rays in January.
