PEORIA, Ariz. — It seems like everywhere you look down here at Spring Training, you'll see a former Mariners player. Hall of Famers Edgar Martinez and Ichiro are in Peoria, along with Michael Saunders, Franklin Gutierrez, Mike Cameron, all helping with the team. Alvin Davis is here. Jay Buchner has arrived.

The Seattle Mariners held their first full-squad workout in Arizona on Tuesday, and one of the team's biggest stars is on a mission to prove the doubters wrong.

Some fans think that the Mariners lean into the "nostalgia" factor too much, but it's been good to see Ichiro, Jay Buhner and others join the M's at camp under new manager Dan Wilson.
