Ichiro traded to the Yankees

The Yankees have acquired Ichiro Suzuki for RHPs DJ Mitchell and Danny Fahrquar, a source said. Yanks also get undisclosed cash in deal.


Yankees are in Seattle starting a 3-game series, that should be weird for the fans.

Yeah odd. I think it was a way to bring even more fans into safeco and create a little buzz.

I just read that the Yankees had little interest in him and that he wanted to be a Yankee. He had to agreed to a great deal of things before the Yankees agreed to trade for him.
