I disagree, though
Bloomquist would be pushing it I think if they are notable to Seattle Mariners, on or off the field, they should be added. They should be a career Mariner or have spent a good amount of their career with the M's. The career milestone criteria is ridiculous, I'm going to have to say
382:
My point was that, since what makes a person an "important figure" is relative, there should be some general guidelines in place to keep that section from becoming a copy of the club's all-time roster. Career milestones are most certainly a valid criteria to consider. Additionally, people editing

While it is difficult for anyone to decide who is worthy of being included in a short list of "important" people in
Mariners history, there should be some kind of criteria. Things like All-Star Game appearances, individuals' noteworthy achievements (300th home run, 300th win, etc), post-season

was one of the faces in the early 2000's (and he was an All-Star in '01 and also the lowest ERA in the AL that year). Blowers was a noatable player but also is the current broadcaster for the Ms and has been for quite some time. I feel fine with putting
Langston up but players who were just

off the list, who was an all-star and one of the faces of the franchise in the '80s?). If someone's got some other criteria they think we should all be considering, then by all means, speak up. The only way these things get better is through collaboration.

should probably be overlooked, even if some people feel he is a fan favorite- there are, after all, dozens of similar players over the team's 32-season history (like
570:
