Dukes is a great athlete and will be a good hitter. Adam Dunn is a very good hitter that is a liability in the field. Would I take Dukes over him? Dunno.
The idea that Dukes is "sorry-ass" is ridiculous, however you spell it.
I knew that looked wrong when I typed it.
You would take sorry ass Dukes over a guy that has hit 40 homers 5 years in a row? And learn to spell ridiculous.
