[情報] White Sox Sign Adam Dunn
The White Sox added one of the game's most consistent sluggers today, locking
Adam Dunn up to a four-year $56MM deal. The team has officially announced the
deal.
Dunn settled for a two-year, $20MM deal when he last hit free agency, but his
representation at Legacy Sports was aggressive this time, setting their
client up with the biggest contract so far this offseason and nearly tripling
the value of Dunn's previous deal.
Dunn has hit 38 or more homers in each of the past seven seasons. He boasts a
career .250/.381/.521 line with 354 home runs in ten seasons. Few players are
as durable as the 31-year-old, who has appeared in 150 or more games in eight
of nine seasons since becoming a regular.
It's not clear how often Dunn will play in the field, but that likely depends
on Chicago's pursuit of free agent first baseman Paul Konerko. Dunn appeared
reluctant to be a full-time DH despite criticisms of his defensive play.
The Nationals, who discussed extensions with the slugger all season long,
will obtain a supplementary first rounder plus Chicago's 23rd overall pick in
next year's draft. Adam LaRoche and Carlos Pena are Washington's most likely
first base targets, according to ESPN.com's Jerry Crasnick (on Twitter).
Crasnick reported that the White Sox had serious interest in Dunn, Jon Heyman
of SI.com reported that the sides were closing in on a deal and Mike
DiGiovanna of the LA Times reported the terms of the contract. Peter Gammons
of MLB Network and Bob Nightengale of USA Today also reported elements of the
story on Twitter.
