The Greatest News Of The Year
I don't think I need to say anything more about this.
I can't remember the last time this team made me so absolutely, thoroughly happy.

ICHIRO HURTS THIS TEAM BY NOT SIGNING BIG CONTRACTS.
by tworsandtwols on Jul 10, 2007 2:19 PM PDT reply actions 0 recs
Not to be disgusting, but
I-CHI-RO!!
I-CHI-RO!!
I am also happy it's a 5 year deal, and not a 7 year deal. Not even Ichiro can keep his current pace as a 38 year old.
Seriously though, I don't care if it's for 25 million a year for 5 years. He deserves every penny.
I am so happy right now!!

by TheMarinator on Jul 10, 2007 2:49 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
Honestly?
Let's face it, too -- with Ichiro locked up, I'm a little bit more scared about the trade deadline (even though I'm really not horribly frightened since everything I've heard says Bavasi has told everyone "no" when folks ask about AJ). I doubt they'll trade AJ, unless Santana or any other young stud SP suddenly becomes available. But, still, there's a huge part of me that doesn't trust Bavasi not to panic at the deadline and sell the rest of the farm for a crappy SP.
I'm legitimately concerned about that. I don't trust Bavasi at the trade deadline in buying mode. After the Soriano trade and the Snelling/Fruto trade, we still have a lot to be concerned about w/r/t Bavasi and his ability to be a buyer on the trade market.

and Ho-ram comes back.

No
That said, if they can deal for a marginally better SP without dealing away any key prospects, then huzzah, but it's not necessary.

Excellent news!
I saw Adam Jones in Portland last week. He was playing RF. I wondered why, and now I know...
WARNING! Conspiracy theory follows! -
Is Jones getting called up to be "showcased" in RF? I hope not. But the timing is weird.

Ichiro
by gblady on Jul 11, 2007 8:48 AM PDT reply actions 0 recs
Not Surprisingly,
The Douche Who Shall Remain Unknown's comments (paraphrased): I don't know why you would pay $100 million for a slap hitter [note: consistently referred to Ichiro as a slap-hitter]. I don't understand why they wouldn't shell out $20 million for Junior [note: it's not like he demanded to be traded to Cincinnati], A-Rod [note: who signed one of the most lucrative contracts of all time], or Randy Johnson. Seattle has been a bad team for the last couple of years, and they will continue to be a bad team.
Obviously, Mr. Irrelevant doesn't watch baseball.
Does anyone else agree with me that if it were the Red Sox or the Yankmees giving the same deal to Ichiro, the talking pundits would be extolling either Epstein's or Cashman's greatness till they turned blue in their faces?
