So, about that extension...? Or time to kiss Dunn's ass goodbye?
"It's pretty cool to hit three home runs, but I think the last one -- since we won -- was the biggest. I don't feel any different than I have in the past. I got pitches to hit tonight and didn't foul them off like I have been doing. It was a pretty cool deal. The main thing is to, obviously, win."

Well, Adam Dunn went berserk on Wednesday night, mashing 3 home runs (#'s 18, 19, and 20) and driving in 5.
NatsTown: Please disperse immediately to the appropriate "Sign Adam Dunn to an extension!" or "Trade his ass!" camps. This morning, FJB takes a nice swing at the question: "What to do with Adam Dunn?"
And now, with the July 31 trade deadline looming, the Adam Dunn Trade Rumor Mill is now running on overdrive.
White Sox? Rays? Angels? Whatcha got?
Nationals 7, Padres 6: Dunn's HR hat trick, JD Martin's first win, and a pair of heart attacks by Storen and Capps in the 8th and 9th.
