Earlier this week, the Seattle Mariners announced that the 2026 campaign will feature a season-long celebration of the franchise's existence, which began in 1977. 

In conjunction with that, the Mariners will have a special patch on their uniforms, and they will unveil the the 50 greatest Mariners players at a celebration in August.

The Mariners have a really special opportunity next year

The M's will get a chance to do something in 2026 that not many organizations get: They will have a chance to draw big crowds based on the promotions AND based on the team's success on the field. After getting to the American League Championship Series in 2025, the M's will have the ability to blend current optimism with old-time nostalgia.

Which promotional nights are you most excited about? 

I am known to be a collectible lover, so for me personally?

The Cal Raleigh 60-home run bobblehead and the Julio Rodriguez 1990s throwback jersey are 1-2 for me, with the Ichiro replica statue, the AL West champions replica banner and the Bryan Woo bobblehead rounding out the the top five.

We'll ask you to weigh in in our community section as well.
