Well it seems you're on your own here. Your situation is rather specific in terms of circumstance, yet too vague to predict. What is the culture of your company? Do you have any leverage, political or otherwise, e.g. you work on mission-critical things, or are the soul of your team? What is your position? Perhaps you could ask for a promotion and weasel your raise in this way? But that's guesswork and random thoughts from a stranger on the internet (read: this is not sound advice). Your safest bet, I would say, is appraisals, and, if you have enough trust, a talk with your HR manager about how you feel and what are your options.
