Taking a look into Ichiro Suzuki’s putrid start

(Syndicated from Pinstripe Pundits). Just two weeks into the season, only one position player has vastly underperformed his offensive expectations: Ichiro Suzuki. We are dealing with a sample size of 38 plate appearances, something that may not be harped upon if occurring at some arbitrary midpoint of the regular season. Analyzing sample sizes comes with risks, but ...
Missed games in April could help the Yankees down the road, plus notes

Spahn, Sain and pray for rain. The 1948 Braves had two good pitchers, Warren Spahn, and Johnny Sain, who were honored in a poem called "Pray for rain" because, well, that was the only way it was thought they could win. For the second day in a row the Yankees were rained out which hurts because the ...

Ichiro signing might be more evidence of Yankees front office rift, and lots of notes

It was a little curious this offseason when after the Yankees refused to offer anybody a multi-year contract and even turned down a reasonable one-year offer from Russell Martin only to see them sign a 39-year-old Ichiro Suzuki to a two-year deal. Sure, Ichiro finished very strong while he was with the Yankees, but in his ...

The rumors were true. Mariano Rivera, the Yankees ace in the bullpen for the past 18 years, officially announced that he will retire after the 2013 season during a press conference this morning. “It’s official now," Rivera said. "After this year, I will be retiring.” “The time is almost ending,” he added. “The little gas that I ...

Yankees make Ichiro’s 2-year, $13 million deal official

It took about a week after the deal was agreed to, but Ichiro Suzuki and the Yankees finally made his two-year, $13 million deal official yesterday. To make room for him on the 40-man roster they designated reliever Jim Miller for assignment. The Yankees gave Ichiro a two-year deal despite insisting against two-year offers for Russell ...
Finding space on the Yankees 40-man roster

The Yankees have a full 40-man roster, but the Kevin Youkilis deal became official today and Ichiro Suzuki's deal will be complete shortly after. On top of that they are still going to have to add another outfielder, possibly another catcher, and some depth. So it's safe to say that a number of players on ...
Yankees deal with Ichiro believed to be 2-years, $13 million

The Yankees and outfielder Ichiro Suzuki have agreed to a two-year, $13 million deal, according to Jon Heyman of CBS Sports. The Yankees have been very resistant against giving out multi-year deals this offseason, but eventually had to in order to keep Ichiro, who was got two-year offers from the Phillies and one other team believed ...

This confirms an earlier report from Jon Heyman of CBS Sports that the two sides were still working on a structure of a deal in the same ...
Yankees and Ichiro talking one-year deal

Initial reports this offseason was that Ichiro was looking for a two-year deal, but the ...
