Below is a complete list of the Seattle Mariners draft picks from the two 2009 Major League Baseball drafts.[1][2]

The Seattle Mariners took part in both the Major League Baseball Rule 4 draft and the Rule 5 draft in 2009.[1][2]

The 2009 Major League Baseball draft was held June 9 to June 11 at the MLB Network Studios in New York City.[3] The Seattle Mariners went second in the draft order and had two supplemental first-round draft picks for the loss of free agent Raúl Ibáñez after the 2008 season.[4] The Mariners selected a total of 52 players and signed 35 of those selected players.[1]

The Mariners selected one player in the Major League Baseball phase of the 2009 Rule 5 draft.[2] They also had one player selected (Marshall Hubbard) in the 2009 Triple-A phase of the Rule 5 draft.[2] The Mariners also selected one player in the Triple-A phase of the draft as well.[2]
