Overview
- The Mariners publicly unveiled an officiated list of the 50 Greatest players in franchise history at a pregame ceremony during their 50th season at T‑Mobile Park.
- The list formally named five National Baseball Hall of Famers — Adrian Beltre, Ichiro Suzuki, Ken Griffey Jr., Randy Johnson and Edgar Martínez — and noted that several have had their numbers retired by the club.
- Seven players who were on Seattle’s roster at the time — including Julio Rodríguez, J.P. Crawford and Cal Raleigh — were included on the list, while Luis Castillo was named despite being traded away during the trade‑deadline week.
- The event opened by honoring the two deceased honorees, Julio Cruz and Dave Henderson, and played video messages from absent honorees Robinson Canó, Freddy García and Kyle Seager.
- The selection combined fan votes, former players, local media and team officials, and the reveal was paired with other 50th‑anniversary activities such as an alumni home run derby and speeches meant to connect the franchise’s past to its current roster and future hopes.
