We usually don't hit on International signings so nothing to lose here. I tend to think it is a knee jerk reaction to losing that one guy...but that is okay.
King Felix was 16 years ago and only chose us over Yanks because we had Freddy Garcia.
Ichiro was 27 and was a veteran. Not the same. Not even close.
Felix was 16 or 17 when signed I believe...Wasn't Felix younger than this kid?

If I remember correctly Yamauchi wanted the Mariners to get Ichiro too. About the only baseball related decision he ever made.
Didn't the Mariners outbid every team for Ichiro's rights?
