Drop Beckham for Fukudome? WHIR

[lyons595]

Drop G Beckham for K Fukudome?? The OF depth may be nice, but the idea of Beckham getting hot and living up to some of his potential would provide depth on the INF.

sit tight, his talent will soon be on display

[Bea Arthur]

Nah. He'll continue to lose ABs to Colvin/Nady and he always slows down after the first few months. If it's just a bench spot anyway, keep Becks for his potential to snap out of this.

Help w/mine?

KEEP HIM ON THE BENCH AND WAIT A MONTH OR SO AND YOU WONT REGRET IT.

[Frappy]

Yeah.. Fukodome always slows down after a promising start. The only difference this season is that he has a performing prospect (Colvin) figuring into the AB mix.

Don't do it. Gordy was great last year, give him a chance. Your OF is strong enough to give this young guy a chance.

No chance. Beckham's wasting a bench spot for me as well right now, but as a life long Cubs fan, we've seen Fuku have 2 fantastic starts... that went nowhere. Beckham may not produce this year (getting harder to hold on to him by the day), but Kosuke's start shouldn't be the impetus to drop the hammer.

I've watched Fukudome hit the waivers not once, but twice this year. So at least I'm practicing what I preach
