Julio Rodríguez is the type of generational talent most teams can only dream of having, and yet this is exactly the position the Mariners find themselves in. With a power bat, speed, arm strength and so on, he truly does have it all, with his charismatic personality and good looks only further highlighting his superstardom as one of the faces of baseball.
Make no mistake about the reality that Rodríguez is on a Hall of Fame trajectory, with the first four years of his career significantly better than fellow center fielders Carlos Beltrán and Andruw Jones, who were both voted into Cooperstown last month as part of the 2026 class.
