Ichiro

  • It's not the right season of his career. Not the right decade, either. But despite his diminished numbers, Ichiro Suzuki remains one of Major League Baseball's most recognizable and singular stars.
  • (Wall Street Journal)
  • Before completing a trade to acquire the Japanese star, the Yankees spelled out a list of conditions to Ichiro, a former American League MVP and two-time batting champion.
  • (ESPN)
  • The New York Yankees acquired Ichiro Suzuki on Monday afternoon in what, at first glance, appears to be a savvy move by the Bombers' general manager, Brian Cashman.

  • After longtime Seattle Mariner and 10-time MLB All-Star Ichiro Suzuki was traded to the New York Yankees yesterday, Pacific Northwest native Ben Gibbard unearthed a tribute to the former American League MVP.
  • (Rolling Stone)
  • Baseball Expert Tony DeMarco has been covering the big leagues since 1987, and been casting Hall of Fame ballots for the last 14 years.

  • Ichiro Suzuki's trade to the New York Yankees on Monday was felt in the Bronx, in Seattle and it could be felt in baseball's postseason.
  • (Phoenix Business Journal)
  • It was a busy sports day off the field in the metro area Monday, as three teams made trades and acquired potentially key players. The Yankees traded two minor-leaguers to Seattle for future Hall-of-Famer Ichiro Suzuki.
  • (NJ.com)
  • The Yankees trade for Ichiro Suzuki is interesting in the same way that Joe Namath playing for the Los Angeles Rams was interesting.
  • (ESPN)
  • The Mariners without Ichiro didnt look much different, on the surface, than they did with him. They struggled to hit at Safeco Field and fell to the Yankees, 4-1. If this was the dawning of a new era, it began with an anticlimactic thud.
