Dunn is the guy you want to talk to if you like holding your bat back on 2 strike pitches and not learning how to play situations correctly.

BTW, the league average for swinging at strikes is 71%

Dunn is at 74%... so, Dunn actually swings at more strikes than the average hitter.

And wouldn't you know it... Dunn has a lower looking at strike 3% (25%) than Guzman (44%), Harris (44%), Willingham (41%), Kennedy (29%) and Desmond (26%).  

Kind of shoots holes in your theory that he takes strike three often.
