Wonder if he lives in Manhattan or across the Hudson in Jersey? Both have excellent Japanese food. Both cost a bundle to live in. Soon it will cost $10 just to cross a Hudson River bridge or tunnel. Just won’t let you be: no-NO!

This seems like a great deal for the Yankees. It would be awesome to see Ichiro get to 3K hits. If he came to the US when he was 20 or 21 we would be talking about getting to 4K hits or possibly Pete Rose’s hits record.

Yankee fans are happy ! The guy brings a Gold Glove, .300 average, speed on the bases, and a pro locker room attitude.When the Yankees got him last year, the Mariner fans were hating big time.SO all he did was play All-Star ball for the rest of the season. Love it. Domo argiato. !

No third option year with marketing bonuses for 3000 hits? The Yanks aren’t spending like they used to.

FINALLY. I like this signing for both the Yankees and Ichiro. It seems the Yankees and Yankee Stadium agree with Ichiro.

Good for Ichiro. Good for baseball. I hope he hits like he did when he got to NY last season.
