Maybe the White Sox have finally figured out that they won a World Series with an offense based on the home run, their park favors an offense with power, and playing Guillen's way actually hurts the team.

Great move as long as he sticks to DH and they resign Konerko

 

[Billy Bats]

Well I know who my 1B is going to be in my AL only league. Nice signing by the Sox.

 

[Dr. Awesome]

One of the few signings that is a perfect match.

Any chance he doesn't suck this year?

Any chance he doesn't suck this year?

I think it was the appendicitis last year. Just seemed like it sapped his strength and he never got it all back. I'm expecting a rebound.

maybe, but his walks and OBP were down in 2010 and obviously way down in 2011. you're probably right, he can't possibly get any worse. i doubt he goes back to 2009 #s, i dont think anyone is expecting that.

Yeah I'm not spending anywhere near previous prices on him, but I'll probably have him in just about all of my leagues because nobody wants to touch him. I'm expecting at least something around 240 BA, 25+ HR and 170 R + RBI. Not stud stats, but his upside is 260-35-105 so he'll be worth drafting him wherever it ends up being (since it'll be so late)

I'm tending to believe he's going to be closer to his ceiling than floor this year. I know, spring training stats are meaningless...but they're really not. They're meaningless when Chris Shelton hits 37 spring homers, but when you look inside Dunn's stats you see his K's are down and his walks are back up (not to mention he's hitting for power again, and against lefties). Those extra base hits and home runs might be flukey, but the upward trend of his other stats is not. I'm now very confident he's easily going to be one of the best values of the season at the price he'll go for.

Ive been planning to target him, but its sort of a catch-22. I wanted to see him do well in ST so I would be more confident about picking him up, but not so well that it would inflate his price. I could've done without yesterdays performance.

I'm banking on everyone else believing ST means nothing. Where are you looking for him in a standard 12 team mixed 5x5?

Im in an auction OBP league with keepers so I cant really give you an answer on that. I like him just after Morse as the 10th 1B, but obviously dont think you need to reach that early to get him.

[Michael Brown]

I like Dunn more than Lind...2009 starting to look like the exception for AL. A sub-.300 OBP for two years running isn't gonna hold that lineup spot for very long with Snider and Thames both looking much-improved this spring.
