Ichiro came to MLB in 2001.....some 10+ years later he has surpassed many many players in career hits. Name the 3active players that had more than 750 career hits when Ichiro started and yet are still playing and behind Ichiro in career hits.

Ok, got Ichiro hits totals.
Staying with Thome and adding Giambi and Edgar Renteria.

Ichiro isn't ahead of Chipper
Andruw Jones was a late inning defensive replacement a lot his first 2 years.

I think Giambi is a good guess.

BOOOOOOM!!!!!
Giambi came because of his 3 HR game. Otherwise, he is a figment in my imagination lol. Thome is easy. I always go through the 90s Tribe teams for these questions, so he was a pretty easy guess.

Ichiro 400 or so short of ARod, give him another 2 years and he'll catch him.

No way. Ichiro would have to get like 300+ a year to catch him. Assuming A-Rod is healthy, he gets 150 a year for 300 total in that span. Ichiro would need over 600 hits to be close lol.

Sarcasm. He has made up roughly 400 hits over his career though.
