He plays LF too, he'll either be there or at the DH spot with Cust

Ok... this is getting serious. Something must be "wrong" or something must be bothering him that we don't know about. The dropoff is just too sharp.

i'm liking halman too. the fact that dude is dutch is just a cool bonus. i'm also excited to see what carp can offer. the tacoma numbers are great to look at. watching ichiro is kind of really depressing too. but he is like 38 so i guess it's kind of about that time. good win today, unfortunate we lost our first series in the last 7 but atleast we avoided the sweep.
basically thats just a sum of what you guys have all been saying this past page. go m's.

Only run scored was by Halman...by himself
We have so many guys trying to get into the lineup..problem is they all play the same positions
Give Ichiro some days off...or would that make his situation worse?
Hope the bats wake up this weekend

Yeah, they can't keep letting Ichi "swing" his way out of the slump. Really is time to give him a day or 2 off. This is ridiculous. Biggest slump of his career.

Let's hope they give him some time off
It seems like Wedge is the type of guy that would have no problem doing so...but does Management let him?

This was a concern I had, but ultimately, it's what teams in this stage of rebuilding do.
You have a good mix of vets and aspiring prospects that you are trying to balance winning with building. The roster is convoluted, but eventually this team will start to shape up. No concerns here. Future looks bright.
As for Ichiro, here's an idea. Put this guy in the 3 spot and let him swing his way out of it. He's not trying to swing his way out of it right now. He's pressing because he's a leadoff hitter and he's trying to place the ball almost. Let him not worry about getting on base. Swing away Ichiro. Hell, why not?
