The White Sox will be giving DH Adam Dunn a day off today. The veteran slugger disappointed White Sox fans in 2011 after he ended his 7-season streak of 35+ homers when he hit just 11 all year. So far this spring, the Dunn has proved to be one of the team's better hitters, but whether that will translate to to season or not remains to be seen.
