White Sox Sign Fukudome To 1 Year Deal

Can't wait to read the various posts about how awesome Fukudome is after he puts up his amazing April numbers.

Fukudummy is still better than the shit you call an OF on the Cubs.

cant wait until poodski comesback and tries to say that fukudome is better than CQ. Oh wait, he left because he is wrong on everything. If you see Poods let him know that his boy who is "better" than CQ in his eyes just signed for 1 million dollars.

rather spend a mil on Fukudummy than waste money on David fucking DeJesus.

And that has what exactly to do with Fukudome's ability to hit like an above average major league outfielder in April?

I love answering for statements made by other posters.

Nice 4th outfielder option.

$1MM for a guy with a .360 career OBP isn't bad.

Agreed. Price tag is fine.

so immediately a 2 year,10 million dollar deal is completely wasting money and david dejesus is trash?

There's your leadoff hitter in April and May. Then you might want to stick him in 8th or 9th

well it is still david dejesus

If he keeps up from last year.. good for the Sox..

If its anything from before.. bad move.

Not a bad move at all, low risk for a fourth OF'er

Interesting. So he starts in the OF with Rios and Tank?

I think the Sox will ride the hot hand between De Aza

So no De Aza? I don't think that is a good move.

I don't think that De Aza will be used any less. They will ride the hot hand in the OF

If Rios ends up being shit again I'd like to see Fukudome get the start vs right handed pitchers in RF over Rios.

Rios wont be a RF

Kenny got bent over the barrel that was normally reserved for Jim Hendry on that trade.

Which trade?

Reminds me of you and a certain hockey player.

not really.

you cannot compare hockey salary and baseball salary. 2 million in hockey is a lot more than 2 million in baseball. period...end of story.

 

[Capt. Serious]

Baseball has no salary cap. Silly comparison to a sport that does.

Stalberg's making $875,000 per season.

well this is a 35 yr old Fukudome who wasnt very good in his prime.

But yes he is better than the Cubs OFs

and if CQ plays long enough he will make far less than 1m per year everyone declines and gets less valuable.

and your point is???

Nice signing by the sox there. Addisonstation and i had discussions last year before the Cubs traded him, we wanted to resign him for that 4th OF spot as long as he took a huuuge pay cut. He does a lot of things you need outta a 4th OF. Can pinch hit, field, plate discipline, etc... Good move IMO

I'd rather have DeJesus if he had only cost 1 million.
