Fukudome Comparisons Continue
Written by wrigleyville

Jerry Crasnick weighs in as part of the media's never-ending attempt to define Kosuke Fukudome before he plays even one game for the Cubs: Until baseball fans in the U.S. learn more about Kosuke Fukudome (correct pronunciation: KOH-skay Foo-koo-DOUGH-may), comparisons will have to suffice. Cubs assistant general manager Randy Bush has likened him to Steve Finley for his fluid style, and an anonymous National League talent evaluator calls him a "poor man's Carlos Beltran." From everything that Chicago manager Lou Piniella hears, Fukudome is sort of an Ichiro Suzuki-Hideki Matsui hybrid. Like Ichiro, Fukudome is fleet afoot and has a strong throwing arm. Like Matsui, he's a power threat. Although his individual tools in each area aren't quite as pronounced as his two Japanese peers, he provides a more well-rounded blend than either. So, to sum up ... Fukudome: Not as fast as Ichiro. Not as powerful as Matsui. Not as wealthy as Beltran. And smooth like Steve Finley. How can this fail?
