Phillies send:
RF- I. Suzuki MLC CF- T. Hollingsworth MLC
Mariners send: 2B- F. Vina MLC
SP-C.H. Park MLC RP- L. Hawkins MLC
Tried to get Abreu on the Phils but really needed Vina and pitching much more. Sent Ichiro to his rightful place.
Thanks Seattle!

Mariners accept. I agree I probably gave up a bit too much, but wanted to get Ichiro back home in Seattle. I would have preferred sending Abreu home to Philly than giving up a fully developed Vina at 23 along with two solid young pitching prospects, but I'm glad we were finally able to get something done. Good luck to Philly this year!

I thought it was a fair deal... Ichiro may be a 10 hitter and world class OFer, Hollandsworth is a OK lefty hitter, & excellent LF with speed. Vina may be a star too, Hawkins likely not, and no telling what happens with Park.
Had Ichiro for a year and the Mariners are about the only ones that have even asked about him. Enjoyed our back and forth on the deal.
Anyway... not that it needed an explanation but there ya go.
