Ichiro strugling big time
After 6 games Ichiro is hitting .182. He got K'd 3 times yesterday (second time this week that it happens). He looked awful, late on the pitches.

As with Pujols, it's way too early in the season to start making an observation. It's just 2 weeks into the season and it isn't like Ichiro and the M's have the best of luck weather wise to get out the slump. They had the series in Cleveland canceled because of snow.

Ichiro will get it together, just wait a while; it is only April after all. People will struggle, have some faith.

April is always his worst month. Every year this happens, and then by the end of the year he hits .300.

LOL... Right on cue, the guy has a four-hit game, hits a home run, and steals a base for good measure - raising his average to .290 for the season.

Seattle manager Mike Hargrave said this before the game: "I bet a dollar to a donut that by the time it's all said and done, Ichiro is going to have 200 hits and hit .300 and be the superstar that he always has been. He'll be fine."

But we all knew that, didn't we?
