-The Booth Must Have Fitted Collection-

# 29 - Seattle Mariners 

The Seattle Mariners had the second worst record in all of baseball last year, so they come in at # 29 on our list. This was a tough call. Personally I am a huge fan of the all aqua/ teal hats that the old school mariners rocked in the early to mid 90's. But the more I thought about it, I was just a fan of the teams and players that wore those hats. First of all, Griffey came into his prime in those hats. Then you add Randy Johnson, Jay Buhner, Dan Wilson, and a young A-Rod (pre-douchebaggery), and you have quite the solid squad rocking some serious aqua and teal hats. Then I came across these bad boys. These hats are fresh. Part of me feels like these hats are overdue, like the M's need to go back to these hats stat. They tried spending millions of dollars in off-season acquisitions. What did it get them? A record of 61-101, good for 29th in all of Major League Baseball and more importantly 29th on our list. So why not switch to these hats? If you look good you feel good, and if you feel good you play good, right? It's always raining in Seattle and that makes everyone sad. They can't afford to have one of the worst records in baseball for the sake of the people in Seattle. I'm not sure if you've heard but the suicide rate up there can get pretty high at times. Why doesn't the Mariners front office care about the people of Seattle? Just make the hat/uni change and everyone will be happy and alive. That's what matters. Do it for the people. 




Coming in second for Seattle's must have hat is this all Gray with Blue Brim Fitted. When the Mariners officially change to the hat above I believe these should be their alternates and or Sunday hats. The people are dropping like flies up there, it's time for a change.
