ADAM DUNN RUMORS & GOSSIP
GIFcap: Adam Dunn hits Matt Moore’s scoreboard face, Justin Maxwell clears the bleachers
Adam Dunn certainly has his groove back as he destroys a Matt Moore fastball off of Matt Moore’s face over the bleachers in right field. Speaking of over the bleachers, Justin Maxwell did it at Coors Field. I like to imagine whoever that is in the dugout saying, “What a ******* monstrosity!” :o

White Sox 2, Rays 1
Chris Sale struck out a career-high 15, Adam Dunn hit a two-run homer and the Chicago White Sox extended their winning streak to six games with a 2-1 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays on Monday.
Sale (6-2) gave up one run, three hits and walked two in 7 1/3 innings while finishing one strikeout shy of the team record. Jack Harshman struck out 16 against Boston on July 25, 1954.

Dunn hits 15th HR as White Sox roll
The way A.J. Pierzynski sees it, there's no reason the Chicago White Sox can't contend until the end of the season. They just might if they keep this up.
Adam Dunn hit his 15th homer, Pierzynski and Dayan Viciedo both went deep for the second time in as many nights, and the White Sox beat the Cleveland Indians 9-3 on Friday night for their seventh win in eight games.

Peavy, Dunn back to former glory
McDonald’s has become a dynasty because of consistency. When you walk into one of the fast-food giant’s restaurants in Seattle, it is going to be pretty much the same fare you are going to get at a drive-through in Tampa.
That same type of consistency is what the Chicago White Sox thought they were getting when the traded for Jake Peavy in 2009 and picked up free agent...

Adam Dunn: #TeamDunn Nation Is Strong With His Bounceback Season
When the Chicago White Sox signed Adam Dunn to a 4-year, $56 million deal last season, I acted like a giddy schoolboy that finally got the date with his crush. I always adored Adam Dunn. I loved knowing that 100 walks, 40 homers, and 100 RBI were a lock each season after dealing with losers like Mark Kotsay. Then, 2011 happened, and no one wanted to be on the #TeamDunn bandwagon...

What’s Fueling Adam Dunn’s Resurgence?
After suffering through an abysmal 2011 season, White Sox designated hitter Adam Dunn is off to a fantastic start this year.
Last season, the 31-year-old Dunn put up a career-low .266 weighted on-base average (wOBA), or 59 wRC+, in nearly 500 plate appearances. His on-base percentage — which normally was a strength for the slugger — was .292, or 62 points below his previous career...

Dunn, Peavy thriving after rough 2011
Jake Peavy is younger than you think. He's only 30 years old. But he's been around long enough to know the difference between "LOOK, IT'S JAKE PEAVY!" and "Dude, remember when you were good?"
Peavy won the pitching Triple Crown in San Diego five years ago. In one of baseball's quaintest outposts, he was the most popular figure not named Gwynn...

BP Unfiltered: Adam Dunn and the Infield Fly Rule by Sam Miller
Cycling is, above all, a team sport, and the tactics involved are as complicated as those of baseball or basketball. "Ever try to explain the infield fly to somebody?" Armstrong asked me when we were in Texas, where he lives when he is not racing or training in Europe. --New Yorker, 2002
If you know very little about baseball, you still probably know that the infield...

Adam Dunn: Back to normal?
Adam Dunn would prefer 2011 had never happened.
Anybody that remotely follows baseball knows that Dunn had a historically awful season. Last season, he set a new record for lowest batting average at .159. Having only contributed 42 RBIs with 11 home runs, suffice it to say it was a massive blemish on an otherwise fantastic career.
In addition to his woes at the plate, Dunn had to...
