Are you wanting Beckham Benched as well? Morel? Rios? Who replaces these guys if the answer is yes? Posters like you make me weep for society. Rios got 94 AB's in August. Add Dunn, and that's 160 AB's wasted with capable replacements sitting on the bench while we still somehow were in the race. If you don't see how incredibly stupid that is then....well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno, Lilibridge, Vicedo, me, Hawk, literally anyone other than the player having the worst season in the history of the sport. Is that really an earth shattering revelation to you? I would've played this gentleman in place of Dunn. Edited September 19, 2011 by Jordan4life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vicedo wasn't up yet... If your hitting is anything like your arguing, I'll take Dunn.. Hawk don't get me started, I wish a line drive would shut him up permanently. Lilly, did play allot..

And all you need to know about this thread is that Victory isn't giving a single f***ing rational argument and instead out right dismissing evidence and fact and stating generalizations and making up bulls*** facts. For example, Swisher wasn't the Opening Day CF. http://www.baseball-reference.com/teams/CH...8-lineups.shtml It was Alexei damnit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunn hit over .200 for one month this entire season. In May he hit .204. Lillbridge hit .265 in August with 6 HR and 14 RBI, while Dunn hit .155 with 1 Hr and 2 RBI. In other words Brent Lillibridge would have had to have gone 0-35 in those extra ABs just to have the same batting average that Dunn did in August. That is also not taking any of the power numbers into consideration. You really think Lillibridge would have gone 0-36 or worse playing in Dunn's spot?

And just for reference's sake, you'd have to go back and add up June, July, and August to get 6 homers from Dunn, which would cover 200 ABs. During that time Adam hit .145. He also put up a whopping 16 RBIs over those three months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The object here was/is to win baseball games. Less Dunn and more Lillibridge gives you a better chance to do just that. Exactly. The whole "people wanted Lillibridge cut" thing is a sleight of hand trick, just like when he played the "But Viciedo wasn't here!" card. He tried to make the "who would you play argument?", and when it blew up in his face, we got the completely unrelated non sequitor. Even without Viciedo on the roster, Guillen had better options than Dunn when the games actually mattered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell Andy Gonzalez might have been able to come in from his co-ed softball league and do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
