    D'Backs Should they have gotten a middle infielder instead?

    I don't see how Dunn's power wouldn't help the dbacks, but they have so many corner infielder/corner outfielders. They recently lost Orlando Hudson for the year, and he was hitting .300 with an actual respectable walk/k rate (Jackson being the only other regular with such a feat on the team) but he was also a top of the order type guy WHO has won gold gloves. Seems like that'll be a hard loss with Ojeda and Chris Burke being the replacements..

    Two years in a row the Dbacks lost Hudson down the stretch. Just terrible but I agree they need to find something to fill the void. I smell the return of Craig Counsell.

    The O Dog hurts this team more than you think. He's such a character in the clubhouse, and a good one at that. I don't think you can fill that void, but you could fill the void in the lineup spot, cause borderliners aren't gonna do it for ya.

    Just watch, the Orioles will trade Brian Roberts to them for Augie Ojeda and Edgar Gonzalez.
