Ten for 2010: Happenings to hope for this season

2. Ichiro Suzuki hits third in the Mariners' lineup.
For three reasons:
1. To prove Ichiro isn't as selfish as he sometimes is made out to be.
2. They have Chone Figgins to lead off, and he reached base more than
even Ichiro last season.
3. To see Ichiro have a 25-homer, 100-RBI season to go with all
those 200-hit campaigns.
裏を返して言えば要するにこういうことだ。
1 ゴキローがselfishというのは既定の事実。
2 ゴキローの出塁率はリードオフとしては失格。
3 ２００安打なんて糞記録に意味は無いからＨＲ，打点で松井並みにならないと認められない。
