Fukudome Could Play vs. Cubs in ST

[Sammys Boombox]

I noticed the Cubs play an exhibition game March 12 against a WBC team. I went to the WBC website and saw that one of the two Asian qualifiers will be the team playing the Cubs. I would imagine if Japan is one of those teams that they would probably have them play against the Cubs because of Fukudome. It would be interesting to see him play against the Cubs while a member of the Cubs.

Could he actually play against the team who pays him? It seems like even if he could he would sit out that game. Imagine if Z or Marmol had one get away and it it hit Fukudome and broke his wrist or something.

It's spring training. If he needed the work that day, the Cubs would want him to play and everyone would laugh about it, forgetting in a few days.

The chance of Fukudome getting hurt by a pitch is the same no matter what team he plays. Also, there is a lot of hype about Jeter facing the Yankees, so I don't see why this situation would be any different.

I'm not really outraged by it (like my post might suggest). I honestly don't care if he played or not. I was just curious about if it could be done (I hadn't heard about Jeter playing the Yankees). I know the chances of him getting hit are the same no matter who he is playing, I just thought it would suck for the pitcher to break your teamates hand in a competitive game.

I'm sure by now the Cubs know how to strike him out.

Slider low and away, out of the zone to induce the Fuku-copter.

 

Grab some pine.

Yeah, why would they throw inside anyway?
