Ok, we're in agreement in principle I think. Somewhere we're not connecting well. But, you know, there's lots of people who would take Ichiro over Dunn and call us fools for thinking otherwise. If we're limiting this to just hitting, I want Dunn over Ortiz, too. But if you said I had to take Ortiz as my DH I wouldn't fight it.

When I'm comparing two players, strike outs really might be the last thing I consider. Ok, I'll look at that before sac bunts. But you get the idea. I really just don't put very much stock into it at all.
