Now if you're saying that nobody in Seattle would learn from Ichiro because he's been mostly aloof and in some years a pariah in the clubhouse (*cough*Silva*cough*) then I'd agree with you, he's apparently not sitting down and talking hitting with the kids like Lou Piniella did.
That doesn't mean that the kids weren't looking to Ichiro for some form of leadership, and if he wasn't giving it off the field then maybe he helped promote our avoid-walks-at-all-costs approach on the field, even if just subconsciously.
