Hey guys and welcome to #FranchiseNation,
I am your host moonlightswami and this is my MLB The Show 16 Franchise featuring the Seattle Mariners!!!! There are plenty of reasons as to why I am choosing the
Mariners for my franchise in MLB The Show 16, so I will lay them out for you guys
...
When I was a little kid, my first baseball video game was
Ken Griffey Jr Slugfest on the
Nintendo 64. I have so many fond memories from that game, and loved the team with
A-Rod,
Ken Griffey Jr. etc. because, well, it was an incredible team! I always loved the look to
Safeco Field (once the Kingdome closed), and have held a special place in my heart for the city of
Seattle. It is most likely the #1 destination I want to go to when I have the time and money to go on vacation, and when I was younger I always wanted to play for the Mariners.
Jump forward to 2016, and the Mariners are an interesting team.
Obviously,
King Felix is a stud. After him, Iwakuma is getting up there in age, and I really like
Taijuan Walker as our future #2 starter. After him, things are pretty up for grabs.
James Paxton seems to hold our #4 starter role, and our bullpen could use a lot of work. For a team that had such a great bullpen not long ago, having head liners of
Joaquin Benoit and
Steve Cishek is not ideal.
Unfortunately, our pitching is still our strength. While we have some good young talent in
Kyle Seager,
Ketel Marte,
Franklin Gutierrez, and Leonis
Martin, the majority of the offense is trending downwards. Cano is approaching that
point,
Nelson Cruz is our DH but is 34,
Adam Lind can only platoon, and our catcher situation is a
MESS. To make matters worse, we have no real blue chip prospects in our farm system. Because of that, I felt the Mariners were a team caught in the middle of playoff bound and full on rebuild. This purgatory makes me want to choose a direction sooner rather than later, and we will see where the team stands as we approach the trade deadline. I hope you guys come aboard for the ride, as we try and fix this Mariners team en route to their first ever
World Series championship!!!
