I couldn't disagree more.  Even in a so-called down year, his OPS is still one of the best in the NL.  I truly believe that on the proper team, his K numbers would diminish.  The entire Reds team just swings out of their ass.  It's like how Pods had high K numbers with the Brewers last year, when everyone else was swinging out of their ass.  I'd take Dunn over any Sox offensive player this season in a second.

If Dunn were on this team you'd be complaining like crazy. You don't think Pauly's clutch? Wait till you get a look at Dunn. OBP is great and all you gotta be able to hit your way on base at times.

Everett or Konerko, face it guys our run producers are pretty bad.. Konerko , Everett and Rowand. manny and Ortiz alone have more Rbi than them 3! Sigh... never been a Konerko or Rowand fan and Everett just to damn old and we gave away 5 minor leaguers in 2 diff. trades to get him ?

Sorry but we do not have a legitimate #3 hitter on this team. Frank is more of a #4 and PK, Everett, Rowand and Dye are 5 or 6's, IMO. Up till this point it hasn't mattered, but come postseason it does worry me

I must say El Duque has been great since the gopher ball.

 

 

I can handle him making 1 mistake . All I want to see is him go 6-7 innings with minimal damage and he looks like he's gonna get it done.

We sure rocked Clement.  On a night where he had nothing, we torched him for 4 runs in 6 innings.

Here's what I don't get, if Clement the ace of the Red Sox staff has an off night we should rock him but if a mediocre pitcher has a great night we should still rock him. Baseball doesn't work like that.

A couple of days ago, I made the recommendation that KW should screw going after a starting pitcher or reliever, and try to make a deal for a number 3 hitter.

If I see any pitcher on the mound who looks to be sharp, I won't have a problem if the Sox aren't scoring. However, when I see a guy with nothing on the mound (like Miller tonight), I'll get pissed if the offense can't put some runs on the board.

Miller has been horrible lately and isn't exceptionally sharp tonight. He has no business not being scored upon at this time.

Ya, he got it earlier this year.  He's ridiculously over-rated in my book.

 

Except that his OPS w/ RISP .943. And he's 25. Did I mention his OPS is .968 and he's hitting .246? Adam Dunn is probably the most underrated young outfielders in all of baseball, period.

Agree, the failure in the 3rd inning was bad. He made some good pitches but both Everett and Konerko weren't ready for those 1st pitch cookies. Attack when a strike is thrown.

I'm with Jason on this one. It's a good topic though, Dunn overrated or underrated?

Compared to our offensive players, it's not even close. Dunn is significantly better than any offensive producer on the Sox.

How many cookies are we going to get this game, and just foul them off or pop up weakly?

 

Well, this is a good question, and there's no answer is there?

 

I presume you're just venting yet again?

We hit lefties good.  Rowand and Uribe are especially strong against LHP.

 

 

Rowand has done s*** all year! Uribe has gotten way more clutch hits and i believe has more rbi than Rowand batting 8th and 9th!

Oye ve. You're the one who hates it when any player pulls the ball and you're the one who says this team tries hitting to many homers and you want Adam Dunn??

Say what? Yes, that's me venting. Is that allowed? I'm not trying to be a smartass. I really want to know if venting should not be made in this gt.
