forgot about him.....
other than the strikeouts-
his #'s truly are fantastic

Obviously it's all about the $$....but if I were him after playing
on an AWFUL team for the last few years-
I would NOT go to Wash- another potential graveyard

Too much money for a cardboard cutout on defense.

TOO MANY STRIKEOUTS FOR MY LIKING BUT HE DOES LAUNCH THE HOMERS THOUGH ITS A WASH.

good fit as dunn is done

dunn reminds me of dave kingman

i think dunn would be a good fit forn the angels, there he could be on a winning team willing to spend.

I am with you on that one Smart... I think he would be a terrific fit for us at the Big A... He would provide protection for everyone in our lineup... Big deal if we give away a few outs a year on D... He is gonna launch 30+ bombs a year... We need that in our lineup

If his defense sucks, he should go to an AL team and just DH...with him resting on the bench waiting for his next at-bat, rather than chasing down fly balls he can't get to, he just might get more than 40 HRs.

40 HR / 100 RBI guys aren't a dime a dozen. Unless he's a problem child, teams should be lining up to sign this guy.

hes hit 40 plus homers 6 straight seasons and last time i checked howard strikes out a ton to.. hes the most underappreciated guy available in free agency

I think the Mets should pick him up but no one has talked about that and I don't understand why.

I don't understand why teams are ignoring a player under 30 with 8 seasons giving him a career OPS+ of 130. He's also one of the few power hitters who can launch them out of any ball park.

go nats they need ofense

Why not... they can get a Dunn and Abreu for the price of Tex.

Abreu
Zimmerman
Dunn

Bowden is as stubborn as he is flawed in his talent appraisals as a GM. He has already reassembled 2/3 of Cincy's "All-Star OF of the future" by acquiring Kearns and Pena. I strongly believe he will bring Dunn into the fold (as a 1st baseman) and will likely use his last FA dollars to bring in a few low-risk, high reward pitchers (Saito and Gagne for the pen) and Livan Hernandez and Jennings for the back-end (insert chuckle) of their rotation. Bowden's limited payroll is nothing in comparison to his lack of competence at building a team. I think Dunn coming to the Nationals is all but a done deal, and I look forward to seeing Bowden get his pink slip when the Nat's fail to win 60 games for their second year running.
