The Mariners signed free agent infielders Adrián Beltré and Richie Sexson to multi-year contracts before the season.[1] The team also traded for designated hitter José Vidro.[2]

After spending two and a half seasons managing the Mariners and guiding the team to a 44–33 (.571) record this season, including a major league-best 25-12 record since May 22, manager Mike Hargrove shocked the team by announcing his resignation prior to a July 1 game against the Toronto Blue Jays. Hargrove said he could no longer give the same passion or commitment to his bosses and players. Bench coach John McLaren was named as Hargrove's replacement.[3] The Mariners won eight consecutive games between June 23 and July 1, making Hargrove the first manager since 1900 to resign after a winning streak of more than seven games.[4]

That eight-game streak was the longest winning streak of the season,[5] while their longest losing streak was nine, from August 25 to September 2. That losing streak effectively ended their effort to make the playoffs.[6] The team finished six games out of the playoffs.[7]

For the seventh consecutive time in his seven-year MLB career, Ichiro Suzuki was named to the All-Star Game, held at AT&T Park in San Francisco. Closer J. J. Putz was selected to his first All-Star Game.[8] Suzuki was named the All-Star Game MVP after going 3-for-3 with a two-run, inside-the-park home run (the first home run in All-Star history to be hit inside the park).[9] Three days after the All-Star Game, on July 13, the Mariners announced that they had signed Suzuki to a five-year contract extension with an estimated value of $90 million, making Suzuki the highest-paid player in Mariners history for the second time.[10]

Suzuki led the majors with 238 hits and 203 singles.[11] Suzuki won a Silver Slugger Award, and he and Beltré won Gold Glove Awards.[12] Jeff Weaver tied for the American League lead with two shutouts while Putz tied for second with 40 saves.[13]
