I know it was against a crappy China team, but just his plate approach and comfort at the plate looked good. I believe 2 of those walks were against lefties and he must've seen 18-20 pitches in those at bats.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
That's encouraging, I guess. But he looked absolutely lost against ML pitching in the second half last year. <b>Once the book was out on his weaknesses, he got abused.</b>

That says it all, to me. Numerous folks have said that playing in the majors "is all about adjustments." On a 1-10 scale, how well would you say Fuk adjusted last season?

That's why my projections would be different than Butch's. I foresee very little power, but perhaps a higher OBP because of his good eye.

.245/.350/.380 ?

And like Butch said, if he's putting up those numbers, Lou will bench him.
I hope Fuk puts up a better line. Maybe he will. But it could also be worse.
.217/.314/.326 was his line in the 2nd half, last year. Gruesome.

Dude, you completely laugh off and ridicule my .270/.370/.400 prediction then just adjust the OBP and SLG in yours down by a measly 20 pts. each? You crack me up.
