M's to sign Japanese catcher Kenji Johjima
Ichiro to get a playmate in Seattle...

Scoring the first big-name free-agent signing of the offseason, the Mariners will announce the signing of catcher Kenji Johjima, possibly as soon as today.

Sources say that Johjima has agreed to terms with Seattle. His name is much bigger in Japan, where he has averaged .305 with 30 homers the past five years and won seven straight Gold Gloves.

Seems like a solid player.

1. I am surprised the Mets didn't get him.
They probably would of paid him better and allowed him the better marketing opportunitys.

2. thats good...but as a M's fan...
they should be concentrating on starting pitching, its a sad day when you got a 40plus year old ace(who isn't clemens) as your best pitcher..meaning Moyer. Pitching pitching and pitching!...:)
