What do you think? If Ichiro was allowed to choose a Mariner, Yankee or Marlin hat in the Hall Of Fame, would he choose a mariner hat? The obvious answer seems to be 'yes', but I have my doubts. He didn't seem very happy here after the 2004 season. Seemed to distance himself from the team and become more about individual achievement than team success. Things got better in 2009 when Griffey rejoined the Ms, but he quickly reverted back to his distant ways after Griffey left in early 2010.

The Marlins seemed to be the only team willing to give him a shot at reaching 3000 career hits. I think he would wear a Marlin hat into the Hall if it was his choice.

He probably wouldn't wear one if he had the choice. Would be symbolic of his individualism.
