The Seattle Mariners are a Major League Baseball (MLB) franchise based in Seattle, Washington. They play in the American League West division. Since the franchise entered the league as an expansion team in 1977, they have selected 44 players in the first round. Officially known as the "First-Year Player Draft",〔 the Rule 4 Draft is Major League Baseball's primary mechanism for assigning amateur baseball players from high schools, colleges, and other amateur baseball clubs to its teams. The draft order is determined based on the previous season's standings, with the team possessing the worst record receiving the first pick. In addition, teams that lost free agents in the previous off-season may be awarded compensatory or supplementary picks. The First-Year Player Draft is unrelated to the 1976 expansion draft through which the Mariners filled their roster. Of the 44 players selected in the first round by the Mariners, 17 have been pitchers, the most of any position; of whom 12 were right-handed, and 5 were left-handed. They have also drafted eight shortstops, eight outfielders, seven catchers, two first basemen and two third baseman. Seattle has never drafted a second baseman in the first round.〔 The Mariners have drafted 22 players out of high school, and 21 out of college.〔 The Mariners have drafted 11 players from high schools or colleges in California, four players from Florida, and a single player from their home state of Washington.〔 One of the Mariners' 2007 picks—Canadian Phillippe Aumont—is the only selection from outside the United States. Two of the Mariners' first-round selections—Alex Rodriguez and Ken Griffey, Jr.—are members of the 500 home run club. Rodriguez has won a World Series title with the New York Yankees, four Hank Aaron Awards, three American League MVP awards, and has been named to thirteen All-Star teams. The Mariners have held the first overall pick four times, most recently in 1993.〔 The Mariners have made eight selections in the supplemental round of the draft and eleven compensatory picks over their history. These additional picks are provided when a team loses a particularly valuable free agent in the previous off-season,〔 or, more recently, if a team fails to sign a draft pick from the previous year. The Mariners have failed to sign two of their picks, Scott Burrell in 1989 and John Mayberry, Jr. in 2002. For failing to sign these picks, the team received the 38th pick in the 1990 draft and the 37th pick in the 2003 draft, respectively.〔〔 ==Key==
