Seattle Mariners All-Time Team according to ChatGPT
Disclaimer
At the end of ChatGPT’s roster, it gave the following disclaimer :
Note: This roster features a mix of Mariners greats from different eras. The starting lineup consists of talented and impactful players across the field. The substitutes provide versatility and depth, with additional outfield, infield, and catching options.
The starting rotation includes some of the most dominant pitchers in Mariners history. The bullpen features a combination of closers, setup men, and reliable relievers. This roster is subject to personal preferences, and there are many deserving players who could also be included.
Rebuttal
ChatGPT doesn’t get everything right. We mentioned that sometimes it confused a player’s Seattle Mariners stats with his career stats.
Even the AI said there were many deserving players. So there is room for debate.
In my opinion, ChatGPT was pretty darn close. I would make the following minor changes to the Seattle Mariners All-Time Team:
- Even though Davis is an M’s legend, John Olerud was a better hitter for average and defensive first baseman. Davis goes to the bench and replaces Reynolds.
- Diaz’s time in Seattle was brief, but he was the most dominant reliever in baseball for two seasons. He and Sasaki change places.
- Mike Schooler was a better overall performer for the Seattle Mariners than Charlton (7.8 HRs per 9 innings).
- It’s a toss-up for backup catcher between Kenji Johjima‘s offense and Valle’s defense.
