| Psychopath Registered: Apr. 01  | this guy has pure talent. he's a 5 tool player and even though his power numbers are low they will rise eventually. i think this guy is for real and will make a big impact on baseball, bigger than he already has. i predict all star mvp,rookie of the year lock, and very possibly mvp of the year. what do you guys think?  IF ASSHOLES COULD FLY THIS PLACE WOULD BE AN AIRPORT. THANX TO JOLENE FOR THE SIG PIC AND THANX TO BaLLooN Not FOR ALL YOUR HELP. | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Feb. 01 | i think he is for real, but i dunnno i mean Shane Spencer was all great and everything and then the next year the pitchers knew how to pitch to him and his #'s went down. lets see what happens We're all just monkeys!!

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | He is absolutley fo real. In Japan, he is as big as Tiger Woods. After 1/2 of a year, though, it is hard to say weather he will win any of those awards. The All Star game has to be played first before you can determine the mvp. The Rookie of the year award, he has a great chance for. But again, he has to play until October. I also see Alfanso Soriano as a contender for this award. As far as the League MVP, I really don't think so. But yes, he is an amazing player. "We can share the women, we can share the wine" | ||||

| Psychopath Registered: May. 01 | Personally I fucking hate the guy. What the fuck makes him so special that he only goes by the name "Ichiro"? That's so pisses me off. In any case, he's a very good player and should be around for a while. Good signing by Seattle and if they go far it will be a nice fuck you to Arod. Comparing him to Shane Spencer just isn't fair. Spencer is just a muscled up power goon. Stupid wannabe Steve Balboni. ------------------- But there's also this: there are over 5,000 men in this city, who know that being a policeman is an endless, glamourless, thankless job that's gotta be done. I know it, too, and I'm damn glad to be one of them." | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | If the Mets management had just listened to Bobby Valentine, Ichiro would be with the Mets instead, and we'd only be 10 games under .500 instead of 13. I think he is the real deal; I don't know about league MVP, but he is really good. Yea i be taking that zoloff, but thaz jus keepin me from killin y'all. I have come here to kick ass and chew bubblegum, and I'm all out of bubblegum. :) | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | Officer Joe Friday, please don't compare Spencer to Bye-Bye Balboni. At least Spencer can play the field. "We can share the women, we can share the wine" | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Sep. 00 | ichiro- for some reason i dont want the guy to do good. i dont know why. i think he is GREAT but after a season or two, teams will learn more about him. only time will tell "i hate people that dont get it!" | ||||

| Psychopath Registered: May. 01 | Well, obviously he's better than Balboni in that regard but for the most part all Spencer is is a generic power guy. He's not as bad as some of the generic power hitters of the 70s and 80s like Dave Kingman, Rob Deer, and Balboni but that's because there isn't much use for those guys anymore. But he's basically just one step removed in the evalution of the power hitter. He will explode though if he goes to Colorado as has been rumored in a deal for Astacio. Don't even get me started on how stupid that would be. ------------------- But there's also this: there are over 5,000 men in this city, who know that being a policeman is an endless, glamourless, thankless job that's gotta be done.

| Psychopath Registered: May. 01 | quote: Yeah, and if they listened to him they would have gotten Irabu too and thus saved the Yanks from the hassle of 2.5 years of him. Somehow we managed to screw over the Expos in dealing him though.

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | Ichiro is definately for real. he leads the majors in stolen bases and hits. he's batting .350 and has already scored 75 runs. he is a terrific defensive outfielder with a very powerful arm. and i think he has a legitimate shot at MVP. | ||||
