Who is the best Japanese ballplayer? Ichiro? Are you sure?

[Journeyman]

Godzilla leading man in the 'Boston Massacre'....

This is not a low budget Japanese flick :neenee: :neenee: :neenee:

 

[RobFunk]

it is ichiro in a land slide. the yanks would be up 3-0 with or without matsui. youre a purist, you hate matsui, dont even give me that.

ichiro might be the greatest pure hitter sice tony gwynn

 

[jjgold]

no comparison here

Godzilla in a landslide

pure hitters are known to lose

run producers win titles

Rob, I just felt like making a catchy thread :manwh: ....


You have to admit, Matsui is tearing it up though!




You didn't like my play on words there Rob?:neenee:

 

[Journeyman]

JJ makes a good point... Boggs, Gwynn, Carew..not many rings...


Boggs got a fake ring when he went traitor...

WON HUNG-LOW IS THE BEST I EVER SAW:biglaugh:

 

[RobFunk]

JJ youre being wierd for a reaction. the yankees would take ichiro in place of matsui in a heartbeat. ichiro crosses the plate more times than chop suey. he gets on first more times than chop suey. he bats close to 400, while chop suey has only had 1 good year.

if you had the package which if journey doesnt get for next season, i will pay someone to beat him senselessly you will easily come to the conclusion ichiro is the better player. he is a rock star in japan. ask your boy rail, even he says 'ichiro is the only player worth watching'

Singles hitters cannot win titles period

Proven the last 100 years

bernie williams

 

[jjgold]

Bernie is a gamer and more than a singles hitter and drives in runs
Good Luck tonight Robbie and take yanks

An EFFECTIVE clean-up hitter is worth 5X a good lead off guy. Matsui is a proven run generator. His numbers with men in scoring position are outstanding. No contest.

 

[JudgeWapner]

Matsui,has proven himself a big in the clutch. Didn't think much of him when Yanks picked him up. I am convinced.

 

[Journeyman]

Ithink its a good debate...Matsui still coming on in the Majors...We have seen Ichiro's act, and its a great one too, but maybe Matsui is still growing into his shoes over here.
He has destroyed Boston...

One thing, Ichiro is twice as good a defensive player, that is for sure.

 

[Journeyman]

Bernie is much more than a singles hitter...

Bernie is a post season winner, and he can hit with power.

 

[RobFunk]

you guys are just making fun of singles players who have been on bad teams. there have been tons of guys who hit +.305 each season and avg. 20 hr's or so such as bernie that have been integral parts of championship teams. what about the big red machine?!

'bernie is much more than a singles hitter', well so is ichiro. .believe he played on the team that has the AL record for wins.

 

[hanover00]

What does Bernie have to do with this thread? Matsui vs Ichiro

 

[RobFunk]

youre right hanover theyre just picking on ichiro a player superior to matsui becuase seattle isnt spending 198 mil to be in the playoffs. F--- that

 

[Journeyman]

Rob, I am not siding with Matsui...I just find it an interesting debate...

For Matsui to even be mentioned with Ichiro now is amazing...any thoughts on tonight's game?
