2008 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers: Kosuke Fukudome

By Tim Dierkes [March 6, 2008 at 5:00pm CST]

As an unknown commodity, Kosuke Fukudome is not getting enough respect in fantasy leagues in my opinion.  He's being drafted around the 14th round, but looks like a poor man's Bobby Abreu to me.  And Abreu goes in the fourth round.

I have Fukudome at .281-18-85-93-10 in 550 ABs, a $10.44 value.  But if he bats third and posts a .400 OBP, there's reason to believe he could top the RBI and run projections.  And Fukudome himself projected 15-20 swipes.  It wouldn't surprise me at all to see him as a top 20 outfielder, but he's going 41st among them.  My biggest concern is that he doesn't match the 18 HR projection.
