OT: Ichiro to the Yankees

[Raps in 4]

I hope he doesn't regain his form in his new setting.

He won't. His style of play can't be sustained at this age, he's finished.

Best case scenario, he plays really well and the Yankees are again forced by their fanbase to spend like crazy on an extension, THEN he sucks.

His style of play being...slap hits and running fast? He still has it, and the Yankees seem to find a way to get the most out of their little retirement village they've built there, where he no longer is the focal point of the lineup.

This just keeps getting better for the Yankees... wtf is wrong with Seattle, this is what they get for their franchise player?

They thought they owed the Yankees one after the Pineda trade.
