Ichiro Suzuki Appreciation Thread

“To tell the truth, I’m not excited to go to Cleveland, but we have to,” Ichiro said. “If I ever saw myself saying I’m excited going to Cleveland, I’d punch myself in the face, because I’m lying.”

I thought he was done, hitting like 349 still got the bat speed

3k hits is just around the corner.

I wish he signed with the Giants, we can use him with all the injuries here

Still fast, still dominant in his 40's.

Most hits in Japan/MLB forget hating ass Pete Rose

I know Cleveland isn't NY or LA or MIA but GAWD DAMM!!!

As a a Ohio Breh I gotta wonder why???

This dude is from Japan and he's shyting on the city....It's so many other cities that people can talk about yet somehow Cleveland is just a punching bag.

I love ichiro, lucky I got to root for him on the yanks. Easy first ballot hof and if he doesn't get it that's a shame

 

[beejus]

HOF easily. Guy could do it all. Crazy thing is I don't think we saw how good he could really be. He seemed to always play within himself and do what he needed for the team. Would have been nice to see him make a habit of stealing more bases or trying to hit more home runs. He sacrificed his home run #'s for BA and hits.

Always next year. I think he'll play until no one has interest in him.

There was a pretty good article about Ichiro on ESPN yesterday

Ichiro's return to Seattle won't resolve the battle raging within him

his dad was Lavar Ball status times 10. He was throwing baseballs at his head and Ichiro was catching them barehanded without even moving on some movie shyt
