Personally if I was in his situation I don't think I could turn it down. Meh i can understand why we don’t want him too but I couldn’t blame him for wanting to play for his country.

Dunn may have played in hitters' parks but his home runs are not cheap like Victorino's. Hitting with RISP is impossible to predict in players. Some years they do it and others they don't. Dunn would take a much, much more reasonable deal than Manny. Dunn strikes out a lot but he also walks a lot. Dunn may have played in hitters’ parks but his home runs are not cheap like Victorino’s.

Ozzie Guillen of the Chicago White Sox. I wonder what the 9% of people against Manny, feel about a Tatis/Murphy platoon? I see people on here wanting a guy like Dunn. Who bats left-handed, strikeouts a TON and played in hitters parks. Not to mention he is supposedly bad with RISP. But you're against Manny because personality wise you think he'll be a risk? I doubt you'll care about his Personality when the team is WINNING!! I can name one manager who isn’t scared to bad mouth anyone. Ozzie Guillen of the Chicago White Sox.
