Ichiro is overated

That last pitch from Nathan shows why Ichiro is overrated. He has a 3-0 count, there is 1 out, a runner on thrird and down by 2 runs in the bottom of the 9th. What does he do? He swings and pops out.

Thank you Ichiro. Why would you swing there? You are not a big homerun threat, show some patience and let the players behind you drive you in. Thanks again.

He is a great hitter and a valuable asset but because he rarely walks he is overrated.

The M's just ran themselves out of a rally. Wow.

Nathan saves it again. But he have up 3 hits again. He hasn't looked good. I will go into that on my next post.

Also, Bremer made another mistake. He was talking about Kenji Johjima, how he was now eligible to be in the batting race because of his previous game. Because he had 4 plate appearance the day before he was now eligible to be on the leader board. That is correct. But then he went on to say that it was because the M's hadn't played enough games to qualify, due to all of the snow outs. The number of games the M's have played does not matter. A batter is eligible to be in the batting race if he has at least 3.1 PA per TEAM GAME. So it does not matter how many games a team has played compared to the other teams.

The snow outs had nothing to do with the fact that Johjima was not on the leader board until yesterday. Bremer is a smart guy he should know this. Stuff like that really bothers me.
