The Arizona Diamondbacks acquire Adam Dunn from the Cincinnati Reds:
The Diamondbacks acquired slugger Adam Dunn from the Cincinnati Reds today in exchange for minor league pitcher Dallas Buck and two players to be named later.
Dunn is a free agent at the end of the season. He's likely to be a rental player. Arizona leftfielders have a .308 OBA and a .387 slugging percentage. Dunn, despite a low batting average, posts a .376 OBA and a .528 slugging percentage. A very good move for the Diamondbacks. Dunn hits for power so well he might actually make up for some that was lost with the injury to Hudson as well. Dallas Buck looks okay, but not great. It will be interesting to see who else the Reds get out of this deal.
