Lee said his team missed a great chance, calling the Cubs' desire to add left-handed hitting ''overrated.''

 

Well, it's true

EDIT: 17,000!

Lee says some things that can indirectly seem critical to Fukudome's signing in that article.

 

The only thing that DLee said, that could be remotely taken as critical, specifically, of Fuk's signing was the comment about the Cubs obsession with left handed hitting. Anyway, he's friends with Hunter so his judgment in wanting him on the team is clouded. Torri is full of it any way because I heard him interviewed on The Score last year saying he didn't want to play for the Cubs because of the brick walls at Wrigley Field (he did go on to say that it was his childhood team).

not worth it. rather have fukudome.

 

 

Yeah, let's not forget what Torii is making. I would love to have Hunter in CF - at half of what the Angels are paying him.

 

And while the LH part is overrated, the OBP is not.

Exactly. The last thing we need is another overpaid OFer here.

I also read that Torii is good friend with Jacques Jones and LaTroy Hawkins, and I am pretty sure those two did not give a ringing endorsement of the Cubs to Hunter. Which is fan, I much rather have Felix Pie in CF, then a grossly overpaid OF.
