Seriously Sandy, you've been overplaying the "overpaid declining vet" line with Ichiro for a couple years now.
Ichiro is hitting at a career high pace in a pitchers park and plays great D in RF, with elite baserunning skills.
You knock Ichiro while "actual" disasters like Carlos Silva get a free pass from you.
Ichiro has never been overpaid except in the context of the declining market this past offseason. And even then when you consider his marketing value to the Ms, theres just no way hes overpaid.
