    adam dunn plans to have a sit-down with pujols to help him with hitting

    pujols has officially hit rock bottom.

    "Dunn who had one of the worst statistical seasons in major league history last season only to lead the White Sox with 12 homers and 28 RBI this year, plans to sit down and talk to Pujols Wednesday when the White Sox play a two-game series at Angel Stadium in Anaheim, Calif."

    adam dunn is in icon in our house. my son admires adam dunn, particularly when he played for the reds. hell, even my neighbor admires adam dunn; i bought her a pair of authentic adam dunn panties and she's been baking us bundt cakes ever since. i recently spoke to a genie named fognimmygum, and luckily he granted me three wishes. well, after i spent the first two wishes on a lifetime supply of swedish fish and sixty seconds raw with megan fox, i pondered quietly on my neighbor's lawn, thinking about how i should use my last wish. and then i wished for pujols to hit 21 HR, 74 RBI and hit .253 for 2012.

    Jesus fukkin' christ. Dude needs to contact McGuise ASAP. Any hitting advice from Dunn, would for me to learn what not to do.

    Pooholes is better than a 2 option hitter (HR or Strikeout).

    You guys are short sighted. Dunn had an epically bad year last year, his first in the American league (Think Pujols can relate?). This year he has bounced back to his normal production levels. Doubt how to hit is even brought up... it will all be about the mental aspect of it.

    They are worlds apart in many respects, but I think this is a legitimate solid. Dunn can relate like few others to what Pujols is going through. Big ups to Adam Dunn, I think it is a sincere gesture on his part.

    just because your good at something doesn't mean you know what you're doing or good at telling others how to do something. Sometimes its best to take advice from others or people that struggle.

    Nobody hits the ball harder than Dunn

    Some of the longest homers I have ever seen have come from his bat. Guy bounced back big time this season from a horrible season his first year in the AL

    Pujols is in the same spot. Kinda stupid that he would want to help out a rival player, but I doubt anything will even happen.

    Pujols is not Korean either, but my comment is an analogy. Glad the shoe fits something.

    Did it ever dawn on anyone that Puljos misses LaRussa?

    That's why he can't hit worth sh#$. Anyone have a bottle or rum? Maybe Jobu could help?
