| Worst Season Ever?
Adam Dunn, 66 hits (only 11 HR ) and 177 strikeouts.
.158 AVG, lowest in 102 years.
Is it the worst season of all-time?

| Niefi Perez also had a -2.9 WAR season in 2003 with the Royals. But considering value of contract, I don't think anyone can top Dunn. | |

| So basically a goat could have taken Perez's place in '03 and the team would have been better off.

Posted via VolNation Mobile | Obviously goats are an integral part of a baseball team. Ask the cubs, they haven't won since 1908, because they told a goat it wasn't welcome back at Wrigley field  Posted via VolNation Mobile | |

I wondered all year if the Ks would be higher than the AVG. Looks like the Ks won in a landslide. | |

| He never deserved his massive contract anyway. Other than hitting homers, what has he ever accomplished? | |

He sure did suck this year, though. Hard. Glad the nationals didn't extend him. | |

He doesn't deserve 14 mil a year, but he has been a pretty good player and would have been better if he would've ever committed full time to DH. | |
