[edit] Criteria for Inclusion in "Important Figures"

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 awards, and longevity with the club would all be reasonable filters when reviewing a potential candidate for inclusion. For example, Alvin Davis, the 1984 AL Rookie of the Year, would qualify; however, a part-time role-player like Willie Bloomquist 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 Rich Amaral). —Preceding unsigned comment added by Funktasm (talkcontribs) 07:08, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
