Kosuke Fukudome is batting just .143/.200/.143 through his first 15 plate appearances with the White Sox.
Fukdome's only two hits have been singles and he's drawn just one walk against four strikeouts. The 34-year-old outfielder won't carry any fantasy value this year.
Apr 19 - 9:51 AM
White Sox signed OF Kosuke Fukudome to a one-year, $1 million contract with a $3.5 million club option for 2013.
A nice little pickup at the 11th hour before spring training. Fukudome will make just $500,000 this season while the option includes a $500,000 buyout, so it's a worthwhile gamble. The 34-year-old batted .262/.342/.370 with eight home runs, 35 RBI and a .712 OPS between the Cubs and Indians last season and should do just fine in a semi-regular role. However, his addition will likely cut into Alejandro De Aza's ability to make an impact.
Feb 14 - 11:41 AM
Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports that the Mets have "pretty much stopped pursuing" left-handed hitting outfielders and will instead see what falls through the cracks from other teams during spring training.
The Mets were reportedly interested in Rick Ankiel, but he signed a minor league deal with the Nationals over the weekend. They have also been mentioned in connection with the likes of Kosuke Fukudome, Johnny Damon and Raul Ibanez, but it's doubtful they are willing to offer much in the way of guaranteed salary. As of now, it appears Adam Loewen and Mike Baxter will battle for a job as a left-handed bat of the bench during spring training.

According to Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports.com, some executives believe Kosuke Fukudome may end up back in Japan.
Fukudome wants to remain in the majors, but the market for him has been severely lacking this winter. Rosenthal hears that the Brewers showed interest in him prior to signing Norichika Aoki. The 34-year-old batted .262/.342/.370 with eight home runs, 35 RBI and a .712 OPS over 603 plate appearances last seson between the Cubs and Indians. While it's unlikely he'll find a starting job at this point, he would make plenty of sense somewhere as a fourth outfielder and left-handed bat off the bench.
