No Adam Dunn card, sad

I can't believe we don't have a single Adam Dunn card, let alone a few. One of the most unique players ever, arguably the most extreme three outcomes type. What year should we have for him?

I like 2004....

2004 Adam Dunn CIN Bats-L BAL-2R LF-4(0)e9, 1b-3e10 INJ Risk-3
LH--2b- 3.1 3b-0 HR-7 BB-21 .267/.423/.551 OPS-.974
RH--2b- 6.6 3b-0 HR-13 BB-22 .254/.420/.797 OPS-1.217
Three Outcome Guy, lots of HR & OBP, this card is playable at 1b, making it one of his best (Defense in some years pretty bad)

No problemo ... His highest BA was .266 in 2004. He did steal 19 bases in 2002 (!). Beyond that, not a lot of triples (10 in his whole career) and he oddly had four straight seasons of exactly 40 homers. He hit .159 with 11 homers in 2011, one of the worst seasons ever for a full-time player -- but we're looking for his bright spots :) It's not a major card, just might be a useful platoon, he did much better against righties.

I think the 2004 Dunn card would be an excellent nomination for the upcoming 20.4 card add.
