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-->
Dunn is better and it's not even close.

I never understood the love affair with Dunn. Like I said before, he hits for a lot of power, but as an overall hitter he is awful. He is a career .248 hitter that averages around 180 strikeouts per season. He is one of the worst outfielders I have ever seen. He does walk a lot, but I'm willing to bet that a good chunk of those are intentional. He's a home run hitter and nothing more, and that's not my kind of player.
