Back before the season started at a get together we had, there was a discussion on Ichiro. Without much thought, a number of us placed a prediction on what we thought his batting average would be at the end of the season. We put nothing on the bet and I hadn’t really thought about posting this until I found the paper the other day that we put our predictions on. So here is what we originally guessed:
Coltrane – .282
Annie S. – .292
Blaidd Drwg – .293
Mrs. Iron Chef Leftovers – .275
PW – .352
Thanks to a great last couple of months at the end of the season when he got traded to the Yankees, Ichiro managed to post a .283 average for the season, making Coltrane the winner of absolutely nothing other than recognition in this blog (like that is worth anything).

I won! That means we should do it again next year!
We’ll also need to do an over/under on AB.

We should get you a crown and a trophy for winning.
There is nothing ciriculating at this point about anyone looking to sign Ichiro. I have a feeling that he is either going to retire or head back to Japan to finish out his career.

I am happy I lost this bet since I guessed high. I am just hoping that the M’s don’t give him a second chance.
