Again, Matsui had a .780ish OPS his first season in the states and hasn't been under .850 since. Not saying its the exact same thing, but Fukudome was a really good hitter in Japan and has shown flashes of awesomeness over here. People are acting like he's been downright awful this entire season. It's hard to say something like 'give him another year', but considering we have him under contract for another 3 years, that's what we'll have to do. Let's not boo him out of town like we do all our other players that fail to immediately live up to expectations.
