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, most notably as a member of the Mariners where he played 12 of his 14 seasons. Wilson began his career with the Cincinnati Reds before being traded to the Mariners, where he was regarded as one of the game's best defensive catchers. At the time of his retirement 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 was promoted from special assignment coordinator to manager of the Mariners after the team fired Scott Servais on August 22, 2024.
