Ichiro's Value to the Team

Discussion in the Nichi-Bei forum
Ichiro's Value to the Team
I saw an interesting article that highlighted how Ichiro has more than twice as many IBBs as David Ortiz in his career. [Link - Club Ichiro]

Even in a big slump, Ichiro makes pitchers scared! I think the article does a good job of recognizing that value to a team comes from more places than just a batting average.
About

This is a site about Pro Yakyu (Japanese Baseball), not about who the next player to go over to MLB is. It's a community of Pro Yakyu fans who have come together to share their knowledge and opinions with the world. It's a place to follow teams and individuals playing baseball in Japan (and Asia), and to learn about Japanese (and Asian) culture through baseball.

It is my sincere hope that once you learn a bit about what we're about here that you will join the community of contributors.
