Former Seattle Mariners outfielder Jay Buhner didn't mince any words when he was asked during a radio interview what his reaction would be if the M's brought back outfielder Ichiro Suzuki on a three-year deal worth $35 million or $40 million. (Ichiro is in the final season of a five-year, $90 million deal).

"I'd vomit," Buhner said on ESPN 710 Seattle. "I mean, really, no offense. No offense, we've got to get this organization turned around. You can't be spending all the money on one guy."
