Daniel Allen Wilson (born March 25, 1969) is an American former professional baseball player and current manager of the Seattle Mariners of Major League Baseball (MLB). He played in MLB as a catcher from 1992 through 2005, playing for the Mariners for 12 of his 14 seasons. Wilson began his career with the Cincinnati Reds before being traded in late 1993 to the Mariners, where he was regarded as a good defensive catcher. At the time he retired in 2005, Wilson held the American League record for career fielding percentage by a catcher. In 2012, Wilson was inducted into the Seattle Mariners Hall of Fame alongside his battery-mate, Randy Johnson. Wilson became the Mariners' manager after the team fired Scott Servais on August 22, 2024. Wilson led the team to a division title in his first full season as manager.
