In addition to winning the Gold and Platinum Glove Awards, he also stewarded the best starting rotation in all of baseball and hit 34 homers at the plate. A switch-hitter, Raleigh connected for double-digit homers from both sides of the plate and popped 100 RBI.

A leader on the field and in the community, Raleigh has become one of the most popular M's in recent memory. Always tough, he played 153 games this past season.

The Mariners went 85-77 and missed the playoffs by 1.0 game for the second straight year.
