He probably doesn't hit for as much power, but he is an excellent hitter for average and plays passable defense. Dunn pounds the fuck out of the ball but is a horrible hitter for average, strikeouts 180-200 times a season and plays shitty, shitty defense.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
This post was made in jest, correct?

I'll give you one guess and I'll even eliminate the "yes" option.

Anyone who thinks Fox is better than Dunn is a grade A retard.

For sure.
Though, I'd still rather the Cubs traded Lee. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ph34r.gif[/img]

Oh, I thought you were responding to the first part. The only way I'm okay with trading him this offseason is if we're bringing in a legitimate 1st baseman to replace him. Hoffpauir and Fox can't be an everyday player there, and there's no better choices on the farm. I think going with Lee for one more year will probably end up being our best option.

Victor Martinez is available, apparently...

I'm glad to see that we are working Fox's bat into the lineup.
