July 6, 201114 yr Only hope is if Dunn retires. We have 3 more years of him otherwise. I just wish we'd give him a permanent spot at No. 7 or 8 in the order til he hits more than one home run a week.
July 6, 201114 yr No, but honestly, I think Dunn can bounce back. Just not in this atmosphere, with this coaching staff. I've given up all hope on them. Sadly, I've given up all hope that management will can all of them because they haven't done so yet. Especially Walker. We've seen this poo for the past 5 years, nothing has changed except for the players, but it still is not his fault.

July 6, 201114 yr Sure I'll play along. Yes, but you would have to wait about 5 months, eat most of Dunn's remaining $50 mill and then sign Pujols to a $250 mill and up deal.
July 6, 201114 yr In a world where a man can trade his way from a paperclip to a house, surely this is possible.

July 6, 201114 yr Author QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Jul 6, 2011 -> 05:40 PM) It's most certainly possible. In a video game. Yeah, it's easy. Just edit Pujols' contact down to 1, offer the trade, then edit it right back up to 96.

Oh wait, the White Sox showed similar insanity in giving Dunn all that money. Basically the Yankees or Bosox will be paying Pujols for the next 3 years in trying to win 3 world titles in a row. Whomever signs him for 5-6 years could be getting little out of him the final year or two.

So Dunn, who's been in the league for 9 years and put up the same numbers for those 9...got to the Sox and the coaching staff ruined his game? Seriously? I get the hatred, but jesus use at least a little common sense.

Throw in the fact that Rasmus can't stand LaRussa and yes they're pretty similar threads.
