1. DarrenYoshida NPB: 326/419/538
Ichiro NPB: 353/421/522
Not a bad comp, but Yoshida is a bit less contact, a fair amount more power than Ichiro. Definitely more of a contact hitter than Fukudome (a not terrible comp, but Yoshida is better).
Maybe he wants to hit home runs?
A pretty perfect superficial comp. His first year with the Cubs was 262/336/433, 116 OPS+, about a 3-WAR pace with slightly negative running and fielding. Suzuki was 27 last year. FWIW (nothing probably), he got off to a fast start showing walks and balanced power then slumped horribly in May then got hurt for June. He was solid in July, blah in Aug, excellent in Sept.
Won't be able to wear #34 here, obviously (though apparently he chose that because of Harper).
