[Yankee Clipper]

Don't you want Ichiro back?

[rrzubnyy]

I see no reason why he wouldn't be due for a bounce back season. He has been very underrated for way too long.

Sure, let's do it.

Honestly, I don't know. And reasonably, maybe the trade options we had didn't make sense. This is simply my favorite pitcher in the game. And we had a chance to get him.

[rrzubnyy]

He's made at least 30 starts a year (usually 33+) every single year since '05 so no, he hasn't.
