Re: Dunn traded to DBacks

Despite all the vitriol that he got on this board at times, I think we will rue this day. What a shame.

Re: Dunn traded to DBacks

Wow! I think it's safe to say the Reds are now officially in a total rebuild mode.

I hate to say this, but I agree. Unless the players to be named later are whoppers, this has the signs of a pure and simple salary dump.

On the other hand, Dunn will be pulling in a lot next year - a lot. A lot more than Griffey had - and if the bidding gets passionate enough, he could even near Giambi-type numbers. I am not sure that a ball club like the Reds would have been able to afford him and put up winning numbers.
And that, in more ways than one, is a tragedy.
