Chris Duncan
20 July 2009
That being said, Chris Duncan and Rick Ankiel aren't making contact with their eyes wide open, so I'd be open to bringing in Dunn. He's currently making $10 million a year with Washington after signing with them in the offseason, but they could give him up as they only signed him to a two-year deal and they clearly aren't going anywhere this year or next.

other guy aboard to drive in.
Replacing Pujols offensively and defensively will probably be Chris Duncan, who will be a huge step down in both areas. Duncan was expected to continue hitting longballs this season, but failed to do so and was demoted to AAA Memphis to try and find his swing. But he's struggled there, too, with a .160/.300/.240 line in seven games. He's going to have to find that stroke quickly, or he'll suffer along with the Redbirds. And he's merely an adequate defender at first, while Pujols is a Gold Glover.
