Don't need him anymore. Don't need the K-king with inflated stats because of hits when they don't matter(lets just hope other GMs dont know that ). So, hence the question, "What would you offer for Adam Dunn?" We would be interested in pitching(bullpen help is needed asap but we'd probably be willing to explore other options).

He's going to be a free agent, right? The question is whether a team would be getting just a rental...
I'd love to have him for Seattle. He knows how to take a pitch, unlike the rest of the team, and as a lefty he'll be able to handle Safeco Field pretty well. I'd like to see the middle of the order go (3) Beltre (R), (4) Dunn (L), (5) Sexson (R), (6) Ibanez (L). Sure, there would be about 350 strikeouts a year in the 4-5 spots, but they'll be tough outs and they'll force opposing pitchers to throw a lot of pitches. And with Dunn's excellent on-base percentage, he'd be good for 120 or more runs scored per year hitting ahead of those other two.
Problem is, my team isn't likely to contend this year, so there isn't much point to acquiring a rental player.
Also, my team's GM likes players who swing at everything, and Dunn is the antithesis of that.

The only problem with him heading to the Mariners is that it
