So, all you Fuku fans

[ragirag]

Still think he's not falling into the same pattern as last season?

 

I've been saying it since late April/early may - this is an 80 win team. No depth, injury prone, and a shoddy bullpen.

I was about to start a thread saying how right you were, but you beat me to it.

So glad that you've taken the time to point out the main reason the 2009 Cubs suck!! You're so wise!!!

Way to bag on the only guy that's hit all season when he hits his first slump of the year.

Yeah, but he's got a cool nickname when he looks stupid striking out - "Fukucopter" lolol

[laurens]

So far this season he's OBP'ing .417... I'm not worried.

[Little Slide Rooter]

Oh come on, you know what this board needed was another thread to point out that the Cobs are bad and point out why. Much like Milton yesterday, ragirags heart was in the right place.

to all of those people who laughed at me when i said fukudome wasnt as good as pujols.... who is laughing now?!?!? this guy is nothing more than a .900 OPS center fielder. good luck winning with that.

[Sosa21MVP]

Great thread. I mean sure let's bash one of the only guys on the team who has been producing at a decent level so far this season just because OMG HE IS IN A SLUMP. After all real baseball players never slump. :thumbsup:

Maybe I'm missing the sarcasm, but isn't .900 OPS really good out of CF? I know I'd take it, even at Fukudome's salary.

Fukudome is a fantastic center fielder for the Most Horrifyingly Stunningly Overpriced Outfield in Major League Baseball History.

wow, i knew fuku had been struggling, but i didn't realize how far his numbers have fallen. i'm gonna hold off for now because he was due for a slump, but f this goes on much longer he's going to start coming close to last year's overall numbers.

[rynefan]

My opinion is subject to change, but I just refuse to believe that Fukudome isn't going to turn it around. If it happens again, then something's gotta change next year, at least we Cubs fans not getting fooled by it again

[TruffleShuffle]

i don't know if he will go in the crapper or not, but how come we get threads like this when a guy who starts out good goes into a slump, but we don't get threads like "fontenot getting back to last year's solid production" when he comes out of his funk?

Did anyone ever say that Fukudome is as good as Pujols? His ceiling was Bobby Abreu at best. I dont think anyone ever compared him to Pujols, even when he first came over.
