SeattleUte has a little shameless behaviour in the past
Default The Mariners are the greatest.

Ken Griffey, Jr. started his career in Seattle and had his best years here. Randy Johnson became the Big Unit in Seattle and arguably had his best years here. He had multiple all-star appearances. The Mariners drafted Alex Rodriguez out of high school and he became a mega superstar in Seattle. Ichiro Suzuki has spent all his career as a U.S. player in Seattle.

Four of the greatest players who ever played the game. First ballot hall of famers who have firmly established their place in the pantheon alongside Babe Ruth, Hank Aaron, Micky Mantle, Ty Cobb, Willie Mays, Nolan Ryan and Steve Carlton. None of them is on George Mitchell's list. George Mitchell's list is a proud moment for the Mariners franchise. These four men are now garganchuan stars as even never before.
