I don't see anyone melting down. Hillman's piss poor managing today(especially) and historically does warrant the conversation though.

I don't follow you on this one. Are you suggesting they would play Dunn at 1B? If so, look back to my first post and click on the link and go to his fielding stats. Breaks down fielding by position. He was awful at 1B when AZ tried him there last season.

He's no worse than Jacobs...or DH him.

And if you think Dunn just hits HR's due to the stadium he was in, I laugh at you that guy hits moon balls.

And this mentality is what brought all that hardware to the Texas Rangers

But what about Butterball111 Our former first-round draft choice who is a 22/23-year-old mother****ing DH1111

Then having to hear things like "defense" as an excuse as the Royals are fielding probably the worst defensive infield ever assembled. No one in their right mind is going to think outfield defense is remotely as important as infield defense.

What would you suggest they do? They bought the only power hitter they could afford last year, and everyone wants to run him out of town.

Yes, he is much worse than Jacobs, much worse.

Jacobs - http://www.baseball-reference.com/pl...02-field.shtml

Dunn - http://www.baseball-reference.com/pl...01-field.shtml

What did I tell you about people absolutely not wanting Dunn, I think we should stick with our nice guys who can't hit like Mark Teahen.

Let's just hope that Gordon realizes his potential and becomes the guy who was the collegiate and minor league player of the year, and not the ****ing dipshit who chases breaking balls in the dirt.

If this happens, Gordon's hairy taint will cover a lot of this organization's **** ups.

He wasn't a free agent last year.

Kyle Farnsworth got 1 less million than Dunn, we couldn't have afforded him?

People over evaluate the first game to the point of absurdity.
