"Dan Wilson, the popular former Mariners catcher and member of the organization’s Hall of Fame, was named as the team’s 21st manager in franchise history.

“We’ve known Dan for almost his entire professional career,” Dipoto said. “He has been a part of the Mariners family. He embodies the traits that I think will go a long way toward paving the road in the next stage of our journey."




"Dan Wilson is regarded as one of the most talented and classiest players ever to come out of the University of Minnesota baseball program. In his three years with the Golden Gophers, he batted .337 with 126 runs, 17 homers, 119 RBI, 89 walks, threw out 33 of 52 baserunners, was a two-time All-Big Ten honoree and first team All-American."
