I would think he ends up with similar numbers to the judys above? Curious that you have Pierre and Bourn on here, but no Taveras. I would think he ends up with similar numbers to the judys above?

Does Fukudome know MLB pitchers' moves better? Are the Japanese better at throwing out baserunners? Are they simply going to run him because Lee and Ramirez can't drive him in? Seems like Fukudome's getting lost in translation. BTW, I do love your passion for the Cubs. I wish I liked a team that much. Alas, I'm left simply loving baseball cause the Yankees make it no fun to root for them. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kosuke_Fukudome

It's sad what they're doing to him, but his greatest fault is that he bats right handed. It's so unfortunate for his development to be stuck in an organization that doesn't want him. If let loose, he'd easily hit 25-30 homers a year for like 8 seasons. If anything, Murton was misplayed last season and he should be traded to a team that would use him correctly like the A's to save his career. Before a game last year when Murton was foolishly sent down to AAA, Matt was fielding batting practice in right. I was holding my red headed toddler son and yelled at him, "Hey Murton! I've got a red headed fan of yours here!" He looked back at us, nodded, briefly took off his cap to flash the red hair and threw us a ball.

Young had the superior age 24 season. He also had about a 100 pts OPS on Cameron in their respective minor league careers, most of that in SLG. I will concede though Young's BA might never get up much over .260 But to defend Cameron for a minute. He had very good age 28 and 29 seasons putting up 25/34 and 25/31 years despite not hitting a lick at home. In 2002 he hit .258/18/49 on the road and .218/7/31 at home. You take him out of Safeco that year and he makes a run at 35 HR. His first year in Shea he hit 30 in less than 500 AB. If he hit in The Bob, he would have had a 35/35 year or two. Can you tell I still resent the M's for thinking Randy Winn was a suitable defensive replacement in CF? Then they mishandled Jeremy Reed, who never got a chance here. A few years later they trade away Adam Jones, who could be something special. Damn, I miss Cammy.
