Ichiro does a lot of things well to make up for his low OBP. I think he will fit in nicely on the Yankees and he adds a different dimension to their all or nothing style of hitting.

I think they should bat Ichiro 2nd and move Grandy into the 6th spot personally. Never really understood why you have one of the best power hitters in the league batting 2nd.

SS Jeter
RF Ichiro
2b Cano
3b Arod
1b Tex
cf Grandy
lf Swisher
dh Ibanez/Jones
C Martin

Arod is only batting 4th because I know Girardi wont move him. Hed be better suited for the 6th spot.
