Are there no limits to the talents of Kosuke Fukudome?! People said he was fast, but he’s shown some great speed so far this season! Today against the Brewers, Fukudome nearly became the first player in major league baseball history to get to first and third base at the exact same time. Psyched the Cubs were successful in landing him in the offseason! Check out these numbers:

OBP .667 | SLG% 1.125 | AVG .500 |
Whatever they’re whispering in Fukudome’s ear, keep it up! Sure it’s only three games in but Prose and Ivy and Chicago are huge fans of Kosuke Fukudome! Even if they don’t quite know how to express it. Let’s see how Kosuke does against the Astros this weekend! The Brewers couldn’t figure him out and I doubt the Astros will in their first series against him either! FUKU-DOME!! FUKU-DOME!! Rich Hill on the mound tomorrow…let’s take this series and make it a great weekend! Go Cubs Go!
What I think shocks most Cubs fans (me being one of them) about Fukudome is that he’s fundamentally sound at everything he does, including all the intangibles. This is the first time Chicago has had a player like this probably since Ryno, and hopefull he’s the missing piece.
