Dunn is a LOT more valuable as a DH than playing in the field. He belongs on an AL squad. KGJ is about replacement level for DH. Dunn would be roughly worth 3.5-4 WAR above him as a DH full season if his '09 production translates directly to the AL. The performance of guys like Holliday and Burrell in the AL make me skeptical of 40+ HRs and a 950 OPS, but I still think Dunn would mash in Brayan-esque fashion (35 HRs, high 800s OPS). He gives us that lefty masher we so desperately need.
I still don't think Dunn would clear waivers, and the last word from the Nationals was that they weren't interested in trading him. If he does though, the Ms would have to be nuts to pass on him right? Hes only signed through '10, he fills a HUGE hole, and then you collect your draft picks. Didn't Z do the exact same thing with the SS position?
