During his playing days, Shawon Dunston never quite lived up to Cubs fans’ hype.
Like it or not, Shawon Dunston wasn’t that great a hitter. Sure, he was a number one overall pick back in 1982, but he was a .269 hitter in his career – including a .267 mark with the Chicago Cubs. Now his arm? That’s a different story. He would pat the ball against his glove three or four times before throwing across the diamond – and he’d still get the out.
