I don't get to see enough of Dunn in my market to have an opinion on whether or not he has a great eye or not. If I had to guess, because of his power, he gets pitched around a lot. Certainly, I'm not taking anything away from him, but overall, a lot of walks might not mean that you have a great eye. Dunn can mash. If the game is close, he's not going to see anything that he could hit out of the park to tie or win a game. His average would probably be a bit higher season to season if he had that 'great eye' though.

I can see your points too. But I think we disagree on a few of our ideas
