So will accept a 6 or 7 million a year contract from the Snakes or will he sign with one of the large market teams for 12 or 13 mil?

Talk is cheap. He won't sign for close to that little.Quote:

He probably is tired of losing.... but a winner is going to offer him a lot more than 6 or 7 million bucks.Quote:

I believe that, but that still leaves 29 other GM's or maybe even 30 by the time Dunn gets to FA that are likely to give Dunn a much better deal than that.Quote:

And actually, Dunn never really says he will accept less money. I believe the quote was "The money, it will be there. I want to win", actually suggests he can have both. And maybe with a Diamondbacks team that struggles to stay above .500.
