May 19, 201412 yr Leads the league in walks every season. Barely bats over .300. Hits homers with the Reds leading 8-1 and strikes out with the bases loaded in the 9th down 2-1. Has one of the highest salaries in the MLB. Anyone else tired of this. I know :deadhorse:
May 19, 201412 yr I wasn't even going to entertain this nonsense but since I have some time... Plate appearances per HR by situation for his career 2 outs, RISP - 1 HR every 23.2 Late and close - 1 HR every 23.5 Tie Game - 1 HR every 24.8 Within 1 R - 1 HR every 24.7 Within 2 R - 1 HR every 24.3 Within 3 R - 1 HR every 24.2 Within 4 R - 1 HR every 24.5 Margin> 4 R - 1 HR every 22.5 (Lowest number of PA by far)
May 19, 201412 yr This is how the Adam Dunn narrative began. :lol2: I don't think Dunn ever got to .300! Heck he never got over .270 :lol:

May 19, 201412 yr You lost me at barely hits over .300 :thumb: :lol2: One of only 13 active players with a career average over .300....What a bum!
May 19, 201412 yr This is how the Adam Dunn narrative began. Their 162 game averages: Dunn: 90 runs, 38 HRs, 95 RBI, 108 BB, and an OBPS of .861. Votto: 96 runs, 28 HRs, 95 RBI, 104 BB, and an OBPS of .956. At age 29, Dunn's career numbers most resembled Daryl Strawberry. At age 29, Votto's career numbers most resembled Matt Holliday. Dunn is 34 and still producing at a decent level. When Votto is 34 he'll be making $25 million a year, and will still be owed another $125 million. Jim, when I saw this thread, my first reaction was like yours, here comes the Dunn treatment (and Paul O'Neill, another hitter the fans could only see the negatives in).

I knew a post like this was coming from you, and I love it. For what it's worth, I'm in your camp.
May 20, 201412 yr There he is! I knew a post like this was coming from you, and I love it. For what it's worth, I'm in your camp. Stating numbers, no more and no less. :sssh:
May 20, 201412 yr There he is! I knew a post like this was coming from you, and I love it. For what it's worth, I'm in your camp. By the way, at age 33 (last season), Dunn's career numbers most resemble Harmon Killebrew. Remind me where I can find his bust? :bunny:
