Adam Dunn on the Market

[lpsevier]

Would you like to see him in a Braves uniform?

[HMFFL]

While I like Adam very much, I don

[lpsevier]

He does SO a good bit, but his OBP is still higher than Jeff's.

[Pai Gow]

A middle of Druw, Frenchy and Dunn? Wow, major league strikeout record here we come.

[HMFFL]

Adam currently makes 10 million and I believe he's a free agent at seasons end.

Big contract and high k's...so no.

I think you're overlooking just how good a hitter Dunn is.

I can see us going after him if we think we can make a run this year.

[HMFFL]

IMO, the Reds are one of the hardest teams to trade with and would seek some of our most talented prospects for the half season rental. Adam does offer what Jeff may never be able to inside th batters box, intimidation.

[lpsevier]

I think the Reds would let him go for a few mid level prospects.

Imagine:

Johnson
Renteria
Chipper
Andruw
Dunn
Francoeur
McCann

How nasty is that?

[HMFFL]

Adam has an option for 2008 for $13 million with a $500,000 buyout. So, he's not exactly a FA this off-season but I think it's 50/50 he would be opt out.

[Mardy2Curry]

Dunn does bring alot to the table but also alot of K's. I think we can get a solid producer for cheaper money.

[HMFFL]

But the pregame pressbox was stuffed with scouts from Atlanta, Houston, Los Angeles, Chicago (White Sox), Detroit and others.

Lol @ one of those posters will to give up Nick Adenheart for him.

I think we're interested, but I doubt we really go after him.

[A-Town Connection]

Yeah if we dont give up too much, i could take him. Gah just put him at first. Personally i want to keep Diaz or Willy playing often.
