Fantasy Analysis
Fukudome has been pretty productive since coming over from the Cubs at the trade deadline and has been able to turn his season around a bit. Continue to view him as a viable option in AL-only formats down the stretch but Fukudome should be considered as more of a low-end Fantasy OF on Draft Day in 2012. (Updated 09/22/2011).
