December 3, 201015 yr QUOTE (ozzfest @ Dec 2, 2010 -> 08:26 PM) Is it possible he will be our starting first basemen? Or is he going to be DH? DH most likely if we re-sign Konerko. Could be 1b if we miss out on a first baseman.
December 3, 201015 yr Its pretty obvious he will be a primary DH, which is fine by me, you DO NOT want this guy in field more than the occasional start. You do want either Konerko or DLee to be your 1B. Interesting thing is for the price of Konerko (assume $12M) you can have DLee (assume $7M) and AJ or Putz (assume $5M). Which do you want.

Dunn has no business in the field whatsoever unless we're playing in an NL park. But our manager is Ozzie Guillen.

December 3, 201015 yr all rumblings have it sounding like he'll be a majority DH, but presser tomorrow could shed more light. I have a gut feeling if they miss out on PK they'll sign Lee, Pena or LaRoche or something of that ilk.
December 3, 201015 yr The more 1B Dunn plays the less for our backup first basemen Viciedo. He needs to find ABs too.
December 3, 201015 yr QUOTE (kwolf68 @ Dec 2, 2010 -> 11:25 PM) How much worse defensively is Dunn than Quentin? exactly!
December 3, 201015 yr QUOTE (kwolf68 @ Dec 3, 2010 -> 12:25 AM) How much worse defensively is Dunn than Quentin? Dunn hasn't played the OF in a couple years. However...the last time Dunn played the OF, he was just about as bad as Quentin.

If Paulie resigns, I'd wager Viciedo is traded in the near future. Even if the Sox do hold on to Dayan, he needs to work in the minors on many of his glaring deficiencies.
