Moron Cubs ready to shell out buttload of cash on Fukudome

Found December 11, 2007 on friendsofcrazyjoedavola.blogspot.com:
It was announced late last night that Kosuke Fukudome, the latest Japanese sensation to take his shots in the MLB, will sign with a major league team to play next season. Interested teams include the Padres, Cubs and the White Sox. The Cubs are ready to toss 6o million at this guy, allegedly fully 10 million or more than any other team.The Dragons recently won the Japan Series, which makes Fukudome disqualified for playing for the Lovable Losers because he has won something in professional baseball.

  • i think he would be a good fit for the cubbies...they don't necessarily need any more thunder in that line-up with soriano, d lee, and aramis ramirez...they do need, however, someone who makes solid contact and plays solid OF defense. maybe he won't hit for a great deal of power, but playing in wrigley will help that a little bit. besides, as long as he get's on base, and plays fundamental ball (as most japanese players, typcially do), he should be a fine fit in the windy city.

    60 million is a lot to pay most any OF, but, their scouts must have seen something they really like.
