    White Sox Fukudome released

    White Sox released OF Kosuke Fukudome.
    Fukudome was designated for assignment late last week and drew no interest on waivers. The 35-year-old outfielder will presumably try to latch on with a new organization.
    Fukudome hit a terrible .171/.294/.195 in 41 ABs and has had back issues all season. Someone will take a flier but he's nothing more than a 5th OFer at this point.

    Even his bread and butter, OBP, is horrendous.


    Bigger wash out, Fukudome or Kaz Matsui?

    Norihiro Nakamura. Was once considered the third best player in Japan after Hideki and Kaz Matsui. Turned out he couldn't even carry Jose Valentin's jock.
