Seattle Mariners Injuries: When Luke Raley could return
SEATTLE – Seattle Mariners outfielder/first baseman Luke Raley began his rehab assignment with Triple-A Tacoma on Thursday night.
M’s Injury Updates: The latest on Logan Gilbert and Bryce Miller
Raley went 0 for 4 with a strikeout in what was his first game action since suffering a Grade 1 right oblique strain during batting practice on April 29.
Mariners general manager Justin Hollander said Raley will get an off day Friday before resuming his rehab assignment with Tacoma on Saturday and Sunday.
Hollander said Raley would then likely need some more games with Tacoma next week before the Mariners decide whether to active him from the injured list. Tacoma has an off day Monday before starting a six-game series at home on Tuesday.
Hollander said the biggest factor for Raley right now is readjusting to the timing of live pitching.
“He felt great after yesterday,” Hollander said. “… I talked to him earlier and he said everything felt great. But there is some timing that’s required if you’re going in swinging at live pitching for the first time in over a month now.”
Here are some other injury updates Hollander provided on Friday afternoon ahead of the Mariners’ series opener against the Cleveland Guardians.

• Outfielder Victor Robles remains on track to resume baseball activities in July and return to the Mariners in September, if all goes well.
Robles has been sidelined since dislocating his left shoulder and fracturing a bone in his shoulder while making a spectacular catch on April 6.
“When you’re immobilized for that long and you have that kind of traumatic injury to your shoulder, range of motion obviously decreases a lot, and we need to build that back and do it in a measured, responsible way,” Hollander said.
“If we push too hard, too fast, obviously there could be a reinjury. We don’t want to have that, so September is what we’re looking at.”
• Right-handed reliever Gregory Santos, who underwent a cleanup knee surgery on April 29, is in a throwing progression. Hollander said he’s still on track for a potential return in July, but noted “that’s a very rough, date of return.”
• Right-handed reliever Collin Snider, who was placed on the IL with a flexor strain in his pitching forearm on June 4, has resumed throwing again. Hollander said he’ll likely need another two to three weeks to ramp up again before returning.
• Left-handed reliever Tayler Saucedo, who is on the injured list at Triple-A Tacoma with a strained left lat, is “doing extremely well” in his throwing progression, Hollander said. The Mariners are targeting early July return for him.
“He said he feels great right now – better than he did in the spring in a lot of ways,” Hollander said.

Seattle officials probe food safety violations at Indian restaurant after illness outbreak
SEATTLE — An outbreak of gastrointestinal illness linked to Thanksgiving meals from Kanishka Cuisine of India in Seattle has affected 35 people, prompting a public health investigation.
The illnesses, which began between Nov. 28 and Nov. 29, 2025, are associated with the restaurant’s “Fusion Thanksgiving Feast,” prepared for customer pickup or delivery. Although no specific food or drink has been identified as the cause, the symptoms align with those caused by bacterial toxins, which can develop when food is improperly stored at room temperature.

Public Health officials have conducted interviews with 16 affected people to gather information on their symptoms and food consumption. Symptoms reported include diarrhea, stomach pains, nausea, vomiting, fatigue, headache, and body aches. Fortunately, no hospitalizations or deaths have been reported, and no restaurant workers have shown signs of illness.
During a Dec. 2 inspection, several food safety violations were identified at Kanishka Cuisine of India, including inadequate equipment and space for safely preparing the large volume of food required for the feast, improper cooling methods, and failure to maintain safe food temperatures.
Despite educational efforts and a follow-up visit on Dec. 4, the restaurant continued to exhibit unsafe food handling practices, leading to its temporary closure. The establishment is now discarding unsafe food and retraining staff on proper food safety protocols.
Laboratory tests on four people affected by the outbreak returned negative for common gastrointestinal pathogens such as norovirus, Salmonella, and Shiga toxin-producing E. coli. However, these tests do not detect bacteria that produce toxins, such as Bacillus cereus and Clostridium perfringens, which are known to cause rapid-onset foodborne illness.
Public Health advises the public to report any suspected foodborne illnesses and to file complaints about food safety violations.
For those who may have consumed food from Kanishka Cuisine of India and are experiencing symptoms, contact Public Health at 206-296-4774 or toll-free at 1-800-325-6165, ext. 6-4774, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
