According to the New York Post, Ichiro Suzuki has drawn interest from several teams this offseason.

Ichiro's preference is to re-sign with the Yankees, but he'll likely have to take a significant pay cut from the $17 million he made in 2012. The Post's Joel Sherman speculated last month that a one-year contract worth between $5 and $8 million would probably get a deal done. Ichiro hit .322/.340/.454 in 240 plate appearances since coming over from Seattle at the trade deadline. He turned 39 this offseason.
