Brief Bio
Originally drafted by the Mariners, Ibanez developed into a power hitter during his stay with the Kansas City Royals from 2001 to 2004. He returned to the Mariners as a free agent in 2004, and promptly was inserted as the Designated Hitter. He has since returned to playing left field, and is regarded as one of the most respected hitters in the Mariners lineup. In 2008, Ibanez signed a three year contract with the Philadelphia Phillies.Early Life
