Right now the Chicago White Sox are pushing hard to sign Adam Dunn. Sox GM, Kenny Williams, is putting prospects Daniel Hudson and Dayan Viciedo on the table to lure Dunn to the Windy City. Washington's Rizzo is hoping to get possibly Carlos Quentin in return from the deal, but most likely wont happen.
With Adam Dunn's salary to be the remainder of his 2 year 20 million, the Nationals may want to free up some salary space by shipping Dunn away. Chicago is currently in first place in the AL Central, with a very hungry raining AL Central champions, Minnesota Twins and Detroit Tigers 2 1/2 games behind. Andruw Jones was off to a hot start, but has now reduced his batting avg. to .210, 13HR, and 30 RBI's which could cause a concern for an additional DH or bat . Dunn would serve the perfect DH especially with Konerko possibly going elsewhere before the July 31 deadline.
The Angels, Mariners, And Chicago could all benefit from Dunn's bat and utility between first base and the OF.
