'Igarashi thinks the Mets can have success'.



One of the headlines on ESPN.Com. Cracked me up.

Has Igarashi been follwing the Mets while playing in Japan? I dare him to name even three of his new teammates. In the story he named a few former japanese players with the Mets, but none of the new teammates. Good stuff for the 'Tell 'em what they want to hear' file.

With his signing to a MLB contract, he becomes the third player in MLB history to have a name that starts and ends with the letter I. Tad Iguchi and Kaz Ishii being the other names.
