Stop me if youve been asked this before....
Can you put together a rotation of Reds pitchers in the past 5 years that would constitute even a MEDIOCRE rotation?
Dunn cannot select the pitch, pitch the ball, Dunn cant hit for everyone, Dunn cant make the bullpen something its not, Dunn cant make a career 4.50 ERA pitcher come in and pitch like Nolan Ryan, nor can Jones. Still takes a good pitching staff to win. If you took a list of all the Reds from the past two years (post fire sale era) youd be lucky to see even 3 guys who would make it on the braves staff and probably even their AAA staff.
To say he isnt a great hitter right now because hes team sucks is exactly like saying Ted Williams or Tim Brown were just average players any given year b/c the team around them sucked.
