Comments on: Don’t give up so fast, Cash http://yankees.lhblogs.com/2008/05/29/dont-give-up-so-fast-cash/ A New York Yankees blog by Chad Jennings and the staff of The Journal News Fri, 10 Feb 2012 12:49:32 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: jimmy1138 http://yankees.lhblogs.com/2008/05/29/dont-give-up-so-fast-cash/comment-page-2/#comment-369289 jimmy1138 Fri, 30 May 2008 07:23:07 +0000 http://yankees.lhblogs.com/2008/05/29/dont-give-up-so-fast-cash/#comment-369289 "Does anybody get else get the feeling that the GM of the Hanshin Tigers must look at the AAA boxscores every five days and laugh hysterically?" Quotes (about Igawa) from the last game against Pawtucket which tore apart both Giese and McCutchen: “He looked good,” said PawSox manager Ron Johnson. “He was really good. He threw strikes with all his pitches and got ahead. We really didn’t do a lot.” “He was outstanding,” manager Dave Miley said. “That’s a good-hitting ball club that he just threw against.” “I would have to say this was the sharpest he’s been,” Miley said. “The one home run he allowed (a solo shot by Chris Carter in the sixth), he left the ball over the plate but that’s going to happen. “For the most part, he kept the ball down in the zone and that’s been kind of a problem for him. When he pitches up in the zone he gets hurt. Tonight, he was down with a lot of pitches and he used all of his pitches. He was solid.” “Does anybody get else get the feeling that the GM of the Hanshin Tigers must look at the AAA boxscores every five days and laugh hysterically?”

Just forfeit the rest of the money in your contract, leave without saying a word, and we'll never mention this again. Is it really that difficult to send Igawa back if he wants to leave?

Can Igawa possibly be traded back to Japan? Maybe some Japanese baseball clubs would welcome his returning, certainly he must give up the rest of the deal with Yankees before hand if he really wish to get back to Japan.
