Nelson Cruz should be Mariners team Hall of Fame Member

Our fan poll provided a nice glimpse into the mind of Mariners fans. Some results weren’t surprising, others were. But one of the things that landed in the latter category was the lack of respect being placed on Nelson Cruz‘s name.

Of the 335 responses, only 90 people, or 27% of the voters, believe Nelson Cruz belongs in the team’s Hall of Fame. Why is the number so low? I can’t answer that. But what we can do is lay down the case for Nelson Cruz: Mariners Hall of Famer.

First thing first, in order for Cruz to be eligible, he’ll either need to play one more season for Seattle or the franchise would need to make an exception.
