Jay Bruce has 112 strikeouts this year combined between Louisville and Cincinnati. Dunn merely has eight more with 120.Originally Posted by Strikes Out Looking
Perhaps you should put a picture of Bruce underneath your RZ moniker.
With Dunn and Griffey gone, Bruce and his strikeouts are next. I can't wait for the torches and pitchforks crowd to turn their attention to him, because it's not far off.

Doug hates Dunn?

What good is a lot of cash going to do? How are the going-nowhere Reds going to attract any talent worth spending that money on?
I guess they could trade for Jose Guillen. He strikes out less than Dunn, right?

lets' see 24 year old in A ball, average velocity when healthy but has struggled with the velocity post TJ.
Maybe is wishful thinking. Unless he makes a huge leap in performance the next 12 months he is headed for the dustbin.
Since he joined the board around 05 or so.Doug hates Dunn?

Atta boy Walt. Trade Dunn to Arizona and leave the country. Probably the smartest thing you've done all day...Jocketty was on his way to the Dominican Republic immediately after the trade and could not be reached for comment.
Except Bruce hits. .275-.280. That makes a big difference for people who "just want batting average."With Dunn and Griffey gone, Bruce and his strikeouts are next. I can't wait for the torches and pitchforks crowd to turn their attention to him, because it's not far off.

Yeah I'm going to wait, because I'm not a six year old girl threathening to pee my pants if I don't get my way.
If that's the case then we got screwed. WJ should have not sent them $$ and should have gotten the draft pick compensation.
Somebody needs to quickly tell him to run out to his position and slide frequently while on base.
Oh yeah, and it wouldn't hurt to change your name to "Rose" either.

I've got a dozen bags ready.
Meanwhile, let's get Encarnacion moved out to left field with Keppinger going to third base and Alex Gonzalez playing shortstop. And when that offense doesn't score, we'll watch the torches light Jay Bruce up.

I'd go for the tantrum first.
The folks might call a pants-peeing bluff.
I forgot.
