July 19, 200719 yr No i'm suggesting your taking it entirely the wrong way. It was a comical statement . Apparently we missed the part where it was comical.
July 19, 200719 yr No i'm suggesting your taking it entirely the wrong way. It was a comical statement if you read into what I said. Sorry, it certainly didn't come off like you were joking in any frame or fashion.
July 19, 200719 yr Apparently we missed the part where it was comical. If anything I feel like were insulting Ichiro. He is a well paid imported hit machine to the Mariners. BUT, he chooses to be here.
July 19, 200719 yr If anything, Ichiro is underrated, and that is scary. I would probably take him over any player in the game right now.

July 20, 200719 yr Ichiro is just sick. I think you have to include him in a list of the greatest ever... Maybe Top 20? 98 - I re-read this and somehow I missed it before. Are you saying top 20 EVER? Without doing any research I can think of the following current players who would be higher than him on that list: Bonds, Griffey, Maddux, Clemens, ARod, Pujols, Pedro, Randy Johnson, Ortiz, Jeter, Mariano Rivera, Smoltz, Andruw Jones, Vlad. There's 13 off the top of my head. So I guess my answer would be "no."

July 20, 200719 yr Ortiz? David? Yes. (Partly forecasting his remaining years) I forgot Glavine on the list.
July 20, 200719 yr David? Yes. (Partly forecasting his remaining years) I forgot Glavine on the list. I figured David, not Russ... After it's all said and done, Ichiro will be better IMO. I don't think we'll see it until he gets older but I have a feeling when his legs go a bit, we'll start seeing him put more balls in the seats. I've heard more than one player and coach say that if he wanted to be a homerun hitter, he could be....
