Dunn excites with his awesome power, but he has
not yet made the adjustments to cut down on strikeouts and lift
his average out of the doldrums. Though his patience and ability
to wait out walks are admirable, his patience also can become a
liability. He often will take too many pitches, waiting for the
one he can lift for the longball. As he a result, he lets too many
strikes pass him by and thus puts himself more at the pitcher's
mercy. Dunn has also not adjusted to being crowded by hard stuff,
nor has stopped chasing offspeed pitches off the plate. He has
power to the opposite field but falls into the habit of trying to
be to pull-conscious.
