Not shown on the ESPN Game highlights was Ichiros catch in right field, which ranked right with the one Ellsbury made in Center. Soriano or Beltran in right would have not made that play. Ichiro can still rock in the outfield and on the bases. Gotta take this computer to spelling class today.
Hate the yankees hitting but to me gardner, ellsbury and ichiro are by far the best defensive outfield in baseball. What's killing them is not having the usual power from 2nd and 3rd anymore
Ichiro has the best legs of any 40 year old I've seen on a ball field, maybe even a Track Field.... A wonder they're not handing out speeding tickets in the Bronx outfield...
No question, those guys can run down anything. There was an article in the New York papers suggesting that Joe G. move Jeter further down the order. Don't know weather to take that as sacrilege but there are some changes needed.
