Ichiro Suzuki is probably the greatest Japanese MLB player ever. He is getting into the Hall.

I remember his 1st year in Seattle. At the start of the season his autographed baseballs were selling for $35 at the Mariners team store. At the end of the season they were $300, if you could find one.

Before Ichiro had even played an MLB game I can remember one analyst ( wish I could remember who it was ) saying he thought MLB pitchers would literally knock the bat out of his hands because he wasn't strong enough.

Everyone forgets the best Ichiro moment. WBC 2009 final Japan vs S.Korea. Top of the 10th, drives in two runs to give Japan the lead and finish it. I doubt there was a better moment for him considering how big the rivalry between them two is and being in the final.

I don't think most casual baseball fans understand what a game-changing player Ichiro was. He was not great. He was so much more than that. It's hard to define.
