Caleb, this is a blatant falsehood...

We all know that Adam Dunn could never hit clutch homeruns because he hates baseball.

That lineup had so much potential but just never quite jelled.

I blame Mark Berry

If a guy hits .300 every year, what does he have to look forward to? I always tried to stay around .190, with three or four RBI. And I tried to get them all in September. That way I always had something to talk about during the winter.
