Why Adam Dunn should be traded

11
Vote

by user Brindley

Adam Dunn is the best power hitter on the Reds. He is on pace to hit 47 home runs and drive in about 120. Many would say with those numbers why wouldn't someone want him. Well the Reds have a few good outfielders. With Dunn traded for some good pitching the outfield could look like this: LF-Norris Hopper, CF-Josh Hamilton / Ryan Freel(Healthy) RF- Ken Griffey Jr. And as well as Dunn is doing the Reds could get quite a bit out of him.

Right now, the Reds just cannot afford to keep Josh Hamilton out of the lineup. He hits for power as well as average and he has a cannon from center and with a healty Ryan Freel the outfield already has plenty of depth. As well as Dunn does with the stick he is a liability to the Reds in the field maybe some better things will happen now that Narron is gone but I dont forsee Dunn being here after the trade deadline. It is time for the Reds to start playing as well as they are capable of. I mean come on how can the team who is leading the MLB in home runs be the team with the worst record. Hopefully Castellinni makes and Krivsky make a wise choice. The rest of the season relies on one move.

This would be a good trade for the NL West since they need a little bit of offensive talent. I wouldn't say the Diamondbacks because they're the 4th worst team when it comes to batting average, and Dunn isn't good when it comes to AVG, but when he hits the ball, he hits it HARD, which is why he'd do good on the Padres possibly. Maybe two relievers or a reliever and a starter for him, that's a pretty good trade for the Reds, especially with the bullpen they have...

"The rest of the season relies on one move" -- if "not finishing in last" is your only goal. :)

I'm pretty sure that if Dunn is traded, he can opt out after this season and become a free agent. I don't think the Reds would get that much for him then, even though he's a pretty good player and power hitter.
