Our All Time Top 50 Seattle Mariners have been revised to reflect the 2024 Season
Yes, we know that this is taking a while!
As many of you know, we at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the top 50 of each major North American sports team. That being said, we have existing Top 50 lists and consistently look to update them when necessary and based on necessity. As such, we are delighted to present our post-2024 revision of our top 50 Seattle Mariners.
As for all of our top 50 players in baseball, we look at the following:
1. Advanced Statistics.
2. Traditional statistics and how they finished in the American League.
3. Playoff accomplishments.
4. Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles that are not reflected in a stat sheet.
Please note that our algorithm has changed, which yielded minor changes throughout the baseball lists.
Last year, the Mariners rocketed to a hits tart, but faltered in the second half and did not make the playoffs. The season would still see three new entrants and some elevations.
As always, we present our top five, which saw no changes
4. Felix Hernandez
5. Randy Johnson
You can find the entire list here.
Outfielder Julio Rodriguez rocketed up from #35 to #20.
Shortstop J.P. Crawford moved to #26 from #31.
Pitcher Logan Gilbert is the highest debut at #37.
Catcher Cal Raleigh enters at #39.
The third new entrant is Pitcher George Kirby, who comes in at #45.
We thank you for your continued support of our lists on Notinhalloffame.com.
39. Cal Raleigh
From Florida State, the Seattle Mariners grabbed Cal Raleigh with their 2018 Third Round Pick, and it did not take long for the slugging Catcher to make the club.
Debuting in the Emerald City in 2021, Raleigh emerged as their starting Catcher, and since then he has been one of the top power-hitting backstops in the American League. Blasting 27 Home Runs in 2022, Raleigh has belted 30 and 34 since, with 100 RBIs last season. Raleigh has not yet made the All-Star Game, but he has received MVP votes in the last two seasons, and he won the Gold Glove and Platinum Glove last year.
If Raleigh continues to improve in 2025, he could vault more than spots in next year’s revision.
