And he walks more then enough to make up for it. Strike out is no worse then grounding out, or popping out.Quote:

You can say "He batted 122 for 517 with 164 K's" and take out the strikeouts "He batted 122 for 353 when he didn't strikeout (Which is .346).
Adam Dunn is one of the last players I'd want on my team...
And that is why no one will make you a GM, unless Dusty Baker becomes an ownerQuote:

This year, he made 403 outs. 81 players made more outs than him.
Adam Dunn sucks... that's why I wouldn't want him. And looking at his yearly salary, I've determined that he is officially the last player I'd want in baseball on my team. Out of everyone.Quote:

And that's how I won an MLB trivia game at All Star FanFest last summer, right?Quote:

This isn't even a matter of opinion, metsguy. The things you are saying are just completely untrue. They are 100% counterfactual.
But he barely ever gets hits. Marlon Anderson has a better career batting AVG then him. And he strikes out. ALL THE TIMEQuote:
