1. Ichiro Suzuki

Well, what can I say about Ichiro that hasn’t been said before? He is part of the Mariners ‘Mount Rushmore’. He sits alongside the likes of Junior, Edgar, and in my opinion, Felix. Ichiro is a sure thing first ballot Hall of Famer, and holds the single season record for hits with 262 in 2004. He was an All-Star and Gold Glove winner in his first 10 seasons with the Mariners, and won the Rookie of the Year and MVP in his first year in 2001. Ichiro also won two batting titles in 2001 and 2004. Ichiro was the biggest and brightest star for the Mariners in the 2000’s. He sits third behind Junior and Edgar in WAR with a 56.8 and is one of the greatest players ever put on the Mariner’s uniform.
