110 1803 David Crane Special K^1091 Re: Former Dodger and Met Kaz Ishii returns to Japan [Reply to #1807] 1/23/06, 9:14pm Ishii never turned out to be the player that he was touted to be. He was very inconsistent and never developed into a solid starting pitcher in the states. I think hes idea to move back to Japan is smart because he can be a very succesful pitcher there rather than being a weak 4th or 5th starter or even a long relief pitcher here. Ishii made the right decision and in being a die-hard Dodger fan, I wish him the best of luck in the rest of his career. [Special K from Northridge/CA] Replies: 1813
